About our non-slip bath coating in Nupdown

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Nupdown as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Nupdown?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What affects the price in Nupdown

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
