About our non-slip bath coating in Whittytree

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. We work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SY7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Whittytree: your questions answered

Will I see the coating?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Do you come to Whittytree?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Whittytree and the rest of Shropshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What we’re called out for in Whittytree

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Clients normally contact us about:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again
