Non-slip bath coating near Appleshaw

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Appleshaw

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Appleshaw

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Appleshaw use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Appleshaw

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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Appleshaw

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

There’s no charge for travel to Appleshaw. The price depends on:

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
