Non-slip bath coating in Pett Bottom

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Pett Bottom

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common problems we fix in Pett Bottom

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.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Pett Bottom questions

When can you do it?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you work in Pett Bottom?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Pett Bottom from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pett Bottom as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace in Pett Bottom?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
