Non-slip bath coating in Norman's Green

Non-slip bath coating in Norman's Green, done in place

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. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Norman's Green: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you cover the entire of Devon?

All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Are there extra charges for Norman's Green?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Norman's Green

  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

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, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Common problems we fix in Norman's Green

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
