Non-slip bath coating in Southend without replacing anything

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. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Southend?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Southend. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Southend

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What areas do you cover?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Are there extra charges for Southend?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GL12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Southend

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

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

If you manage property in Southend, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
