Non-slip bath coating near Queen's Cross

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

  • Typically one visit, start to finish

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Queen's Cross

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Queen's Cross?

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

How to compare quotes

Queen's Cross: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Queen's Cross is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Queen's Cross

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Queen's Cross

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Queen's Cross as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
