Non-slip bath coating at your home in Pilgrims Hatch

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re frequently asked to fix worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.

In and around Pilgrims Hatch, homes are a mix of older cottages and newer houses. Older ones may still have cast iron or steel baths, which are well worth keeping, and newer ones typically have acrylic.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Pilgrims Hatch?

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.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

If you let a flat or house near Brentwood station (about 1.6 miles south), we repair baths and shower trays between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pilgrims Hatch

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Pilgrims Hatch

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. If your bath or shower tray in Pilgrims Hatch is sound, a repair is normally the better choice.

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
