Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Barnes Street, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Barnes Street. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Barnes Street

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Will it make a mess?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you cover Barnes Street?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Barnes Street for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your TN11 postcode.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
