Non-slip bath coating near Wittersham

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wittersham

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Questions from Wittersham

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Kent.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I have to be there?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Wittersham

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wittersham as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
