How we handle non-slip bath coating in Twyford

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. 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 apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Common problems we fix in Twyford

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.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repair or replace in Twyford?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Twyford questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Twyford

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Twyford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
