Non-slip bath coating for Mark Cross homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Mark Cross

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. We regularly repair enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

What affects the price in Mark Cross

We don’t charge extra for travel to Mark Cross. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Mark Cross, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Questions from Mark Cross

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mark Cross

Common problems we fix in Mark Cross

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.

Common reasons people in Mark Cross contact us include:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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.
