Trusted non-slip bath coating in Sutton

Non-slip bath coating in Sutton without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sutton as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will 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

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Sutton?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

For anyone letting property in or around Sutton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Sutton

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is there a guarantee?

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

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repair or replace in Sutton?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Sutton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Sutton

We do not charge extra for travel to Sutton. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

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