Trusted non-slip bath coating in Privett

Non-slip bath coating in Privett without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Privett as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Privett

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Privett

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our pricing.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

What affects the price in Privett

We charge the same across the UK, including Privett. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Privett questions

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Privett.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Privett. Prices don’t change with location.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
