Non-slip bath coating near Swallowfield

About our non-slip bath coating in Swallowfield

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.

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

Swallowfield questions

Does someone need to be in?

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

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Swallowfield?

Smooth surfaces are 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.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Swallowfield, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RG7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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