Non-Slip Bath Coating in Ram Hill
Local non-slip bath coating for Ram Hill: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ram Hill
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Ram Hill
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material

FAQs for Ram Hill
Are there extra charges for Ram Hill?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS36 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Ram Hill
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.
