Trusted non-slip bath coating in Slaugham

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Slaugham

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. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When to call us in Slaugham

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How to look after the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RH17 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We don’t add 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.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Common questions in Slaugham

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Are there extra charges for Slaugham?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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