Non-slip bath coating in Tisman's Common, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Somewhere as small as Tisman's Common, you will find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Many have heavy cast iron baths or baths in awkward spots, and removing a bath from an older house is rarely simple. Repairing in place avoids that.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Should you replace it?

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 coating adds grip to the bath you have. Older homes around Tisman's Common may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Common questions in Tisman's Common

Do you come out to small places like Tisman's Common?

Yes, we cover the whole UK, villages included, with the same prices as anywhere else.

My house in Tisman's Common is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Usually, yes. Older baths and shower trays are frequently worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

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.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there. For a rural address like Tisman's Common, we plan the journey in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the non-slip bath coating comes with us in one trip.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

Common problems we fix in Tisman's Common

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.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

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

If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as St John the Baptist, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and non-slip bath coating gives it years more use.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Tisman's Common

Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
