About our non-slip bath coating in Wardhedges
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Wardhedges
We don’t charge extra for travel to Wardhedges. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
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, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Wardhedges
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.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions from Wardhedges
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wardhedges
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wardhedges as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
