It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

10 questions to ask before booking

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Kents Bank

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Are there extra charges for Kents Bank?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.
