Non-slip bath coating at your home in High Beech

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in High Beech as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in High Beech

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no area surcharge for High Beech. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IG10 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we are called out for in High Beech

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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