Non-slip bath coating at your home in Rubery

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Rubery and across Birmingham. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

What we’re called out for in Rubery

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rubery questions

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

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Rubery is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Are there extra charges for Rubery?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Rubery, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
