Non-slip bath coating near Hurst Wickham

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Hurst Wickham

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace in Hurst Wickham?

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 adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Hurst Wickham?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

What it costs 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 there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most clients in Hurst Wickham 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.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
