  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating in South Hampstead 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 it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.

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

Repair or replace in South Hampstead?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We do not charge extra for travel to South Hampstead. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in South Hampstead and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Hampstead

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are 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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in South Hampstead

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you come to South Hampstead?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to South Hampstead. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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 typically cheaper.
