Non-slip bath coating for Watersfield homes

Should you replace it?

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. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Non-slip bath coating in Watersfield, 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. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Watersfield and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Watersfield

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Watersfield questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?

We cover the entire UK, including Watersfield and the rest of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you work in Watersfield?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When to call us in Watersfield

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for these signs:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Watersfield. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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