Non-slip bath coating in Sperberry Hill without replacing anything

It suits 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. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

When to call us in Sperberry Hill

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Sperberry Hill questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no charge for travel to Sperberry Hill. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Sperberry Hill

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
