Need non-slip bath coating in Wandsworth?

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Resurfaced baths

Non-slip bath coating in Wandsworth, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Wandsworth clients choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How to compare quotes

How we price non-slip bath coating

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wandsworth use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
