How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no area surcharge for Stancombe. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Stancombe

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Stancombe and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Stancombe

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Are you accredited?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

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. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Stancombe

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

When to call us in Stancombe

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How to care for the finish
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
