How we handle non-slip bath coating in Roydon

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Roydon

For anyone letting property in or around Roydon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roydon as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repairing versus replacing in Roydon

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before booking

Read our prices page.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 photos.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Roydon?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before you book

Roydon: your questions answered

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

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

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

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

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover the whole of Essex?

Everywhere in the UK, Roydon included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CM19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Roydon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
