Non-slip bath coating in Teddington

When to call us in Teddington

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Teddington

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Teddington

Do you cover Teddington?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Teddington and the rest of Greater London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Teddington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Teddington

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Teddington. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
