Pickmere questions
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pickmere
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can generally put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Pickmere
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pickmere. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
When to call us in Pickmere
Smooth surfaces are 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.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
