Non-slip bath coating for Longwick homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Longwick

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Take a look at our full price list.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Longwick, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Questions from Longwick

Do you cover Longwick?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Longwick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no charge for travel to Longwick. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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 reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Longwick

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, 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, and the work is guaranteed.
