Non-slip bath coating for Radwell homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Radwell

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common questions in Radwell

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do you cover Radwell?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Radwell from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When a repair is not the answer

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Radwell?

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
