Non-slip bath coating in Woodcote

About our non-slip bath coating in Woodcote

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why Woodcote customers choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No need to remove anything
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Woodcote

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Woodcote?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
