Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Non-slip bath coating in Forward Green, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What non-slip bath coating costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Forward Green. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

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

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repair or replace in Forward Green?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common problems we fix in Forward Green

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
