Non-slip bath coating near Richmond

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Richmond

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. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Richmond

Do you work in Richmond?

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

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Richmond. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode

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

Landlord and trade work in Richmond

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
