Need non-slip bath coating in Roughdown?

Non-slip bath coating in Roughdown without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Roughdown questions

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

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can tenants book a repair?

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.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Roughdown

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most clients in Roughdown get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we are called out for in Roughdown

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
