Non-slip bath coating for Puddledock homes

Non-slip bath coating in Puddledock, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How to compare quotes

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no charge for travel to Puddledock. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Puddledock questions

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Puddledock?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
