Heartsease questions
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Norfolk.
Non-slip bath coating in Heartsease without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Heartsease?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What we cannot put right
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’ll give you a straight answer.
