Non-slip bath coating for Upshire homes

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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

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

Non-slip bath coating in Upshire, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, across resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no area surcharge for Upshire. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not 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.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EN9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Upshire, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Repairing versus replacing in Upshire

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I have to be there?
