DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Non-slip bath coating in Park Wood without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you come to Park Wood?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Park Wood. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Are you accredited?

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

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

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, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common problems we fix in Park Wood

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
