Non-slip bath coating at your home in Sandhurst

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Sandhurst?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Sandhurst clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Sandhurst

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Will there be a smell?

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Sandhurst

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

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

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

Choosing a repair company

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you are in Sandhurst and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
