About our non-slip bath coating in Barcombe Mills

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Sussex. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Barcombe Mills. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Barcombe Mills: your questions answered

What happens next?

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across East Sussex.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you cover Barcombe Mills?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Barcombe Mills. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common problems we fix in Barcombe Mills

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

Repair or replace in Barcombe Mills?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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