Non-slip bath coating in West Wickham, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

West Wickham questions

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Landlord and trade work in West Wickham

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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

Repairing versus replacing in West Wickham

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why West Wickham clients choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

See our prices page.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we would advise against a repair

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in West Wickham

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.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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 price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
