Non-slip bath coating in Pyecombe

Non-slip bath coating in Pyecombe, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pyecombe and across West Sussex. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pyecombe

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Repairing versus replacing in Pyecombe

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

When to call us in Pyecombe

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

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

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Pyecombe

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Pyecombe included. Travel is included in the price.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, 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. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
