Non-slip bath coating for Woodcroft homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Woodcroft

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Woodcroft

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Woodcroft?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your ST13 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Woodcroft?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What affects the price in Woodcroft

There is no area surcharge for Woodcroft. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ST13 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
