Trusted non-slip bath coating in Linchmere

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Linchmere

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Linchmere

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Linchmere, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and 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 will give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When to call us in Linchmere

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • 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

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How your room will be protected
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What prep work is covered

Linchmere: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you come to Linchmere?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Linchmere and the rest of Surrey. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Linchmere

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

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
