Non-slip bath coating for Woodcote Green homes

Non-slip bath coating in Woodcote Green without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

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.

Quotes from your photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Why repair rather than replace?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Woodcote Green

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page.

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Woodcote Green

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
