Non-slip bath coating for Romford homes

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t 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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Non-slip bath coating in Romford without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

  • Worn-out textured areas

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Romford

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Romford?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What affects the price in Romford

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Romford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should you replace it?

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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price
