Non-slip bath coating for Wall Hill homes

Non-slip bath coating in Wall Hill, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Wall Hill

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you work in Wall Hill?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wall Hill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we are called out for in Wall Hill

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Clients typically contact us about:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wall Hill

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wall Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Wall Hill

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
