Non-slip bath coating near Holbrook

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Holbrook

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Holbrook

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Are there extra charges for Holbrook?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

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

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

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

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Holbrook?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holbrook

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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