  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating in Great Burstead without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Great Burstead: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you come to Great Burstead?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Great Burstead for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in Great Burstead and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Great Burstead

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price
