Need non-slip bath coating in Rayners Lane?

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Rayners Lane

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Rayners Lane: your questions answered

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Rayners Lane. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
