Non-slip bath coating for Wavendon homes

Wavendon questions

Do you work in Wavendon?

We do. We send a technician to Wavendon for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wavendon

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common problems we fix in Wavendon

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

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
  • Outdoor surfaces

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

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  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, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
