About our non-slip bath coating in New Barnet

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 are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in New Barnet and across Greater London. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When to call us in New Barnet

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

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Questions from New Barnet

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in New Barnet

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

  • Shower trays
