Non-slip bath coating in Walmer, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Walmer

If you manage property in Walmer, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walmer as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repairing versus replacing in Walmer

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our prices page.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Walmer. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Walmer questions

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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

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

Are there extra charges for Walmer?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you accredited?

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

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
