Non-slip bath coating near Potter's Forstal

Non-slip bath coating in Potter's Forstal, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Shower trays

Common problems we fix in Potter's Forstal

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.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

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

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Potter's Forstal use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in Potter's Forstal get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
