Non-slip bath coating in Hambledon

Non-slip bath coating in Hambledon without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Hambledon: your questions answered

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the whole of Surrey?

We cover the entire UK, including Hambledon and the rest of Surrey. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Hambledon

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and 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 items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Hambledon get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hambledon

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hambledon as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
