Non-slip bath coating in Frilford Heath

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Frilford Heath

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

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

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book

What non-slip bath coating costs

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Frilford Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
