Honest limits

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

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

Non-slip bath coating in Quaking Houses without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Quaking Houses

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Questions from Quaking Houses

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you come to Quaking Houses?

We do. We send a technician to Quaking Houses for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Quaking Houses?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

How to compare quotes

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
