Landlord and trade work in Tan Office Green

Non-slip bath coating in Tan Office Green, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Tan Office Green

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

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Tan Office Green

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Tan Office Green

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, 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.
