Non-slip bath coating in West Wycombe, 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. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

What we are called out for in West Wycombe

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.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

West Wycombe questions

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including West Wycombe. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HP14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Wycombe

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
