Non-slip bath coating near Finchampstead

Non-slip bath coating in Finchampstead without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Finchampstead

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

FAQs for Finchampstead

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to Finchampstead?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Finchampstead. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no area surcharge for Finchampstead. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RG40 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Finchampstead

If you manage property in Finchampstead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

When to call us in Finchampstead

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
