Non-slip bath coating for Long Crendon homes

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

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

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Long Crendon, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Long Crendon

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. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Buckinghamshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Long Crendon: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, 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.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Landlord and trade work in Long Crendon

If you manage property in Long Crendon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Long Crendon

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

What to look for in a quote

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Long Crendon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

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

How to prepare

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

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
