Non-slip bath coating near Sandy Lane

Non-slip bath coating in Sandy Lane without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in Sandy Lane

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Do you cover the whole of Wiltshire?

The entire UK, including all of Wiltshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How to compare quotes

What non-slip bath coating costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
