What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Falmer. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Falmer. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BN1 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Non-slip bath coating in Falmer, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

Landlords, agents and businesses in Falmer

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Falmer?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
