Non-slip bath coating in Sandon without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

Questions from Sandon

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Sandon?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Honest limits

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Sandon

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sandon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

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

How to compare quotes

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ST18 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
