How we handle non-slip bath coating in Tetchill

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Repairing versus replacing in Tetchill

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your photos

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no charge for travel to Tetchill. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Tetchill questions

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

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

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Tetchill?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tetchill

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tetchill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we are called out for in Tetchill

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Tetchill, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
