Non-slip bath coating for Twickenham homes

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Non-slip bath coating in Twickenham without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Twickenham

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Twickenham

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

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

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Twickenham

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do you work in Twickenham?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Twickenham from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Repair or replace in Twickenham?

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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
