About our non-slip bath coating in Little Bristol

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d 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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Bristol use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Little Bristol: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will I see the coating?

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

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

What affects the price in Little Bristol

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Little Bristol get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
