Non-slip bath coating for Great Chart homes

Non-slip bath coating in Great Chart, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays

Questions from Great Chart

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TN23 postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What we are called out for in Great Chart

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

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  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. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Great Chart

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Great Chart. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our full price list.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Great Chart, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
