Non-slip bath coating in New Marston without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, across acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why New Marston clients choose us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

When to call us in New Marston

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Marston use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to New Marston. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

New Marston questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in New Marston?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Are there extra charges for New Marston?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you work in New Marston?

We do. We send a technician to New Marston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
