Non-slip bath coating in Ifield without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Ifield questions

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you work in Ifield?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ifield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

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

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Ifield. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Ifield get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RH11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
