About our non-slip bath coating in Sutton

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. 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.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Sutton?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Common reasons people in Sutton contact us include:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • If travel is included in the price
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should you replace it?

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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Sutton: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Sutton?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
