What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

What affects the price in Upper Ifield
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Most clients in Upper Ifield get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Landlord and trade work in Upper Ifield
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Upper Ifield questions
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you work in Upper Ifield?
We do. We send a technician to Upper Ifield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
