About our non-slip bath coating in Marden Ash

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will 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. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

10 questions to ask before booking

Marden Ash questions

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Essex.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Marden Ash. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I need to be at home?

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

When we would advise against a repair

We would 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marden Ash

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We charge the same across the UK, including Marden Ash. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
