Non-slip bath coating for Summer Hill homes

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work 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 start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

About our non-slip bath coating in Summer Hill

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Summer Hill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

Choosing a repair company

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Summer Hill. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

For a price in Summer Hill, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
