Non-slip bath coating for Forge Wood homes

Non-slip bath coating in Forge Wood, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Forge Wood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
We mask out the area to be treated.
The clear textured coating is applied.
The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Let us know if it has been repaired before

Questions from Forge Wood

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across West Sussex.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Forge Wood?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Are there extra charges for Forge Wood?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in West Sussex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What a repair cannot fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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 booking.

Repairing versus replacing in Forge Wood

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
