Non-slip bath coating in Beccles

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Beccles

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

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

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Advice

Prices and what affects them

We don’t charge extra for travel to Beccles. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Beccles get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Beccles: your questions answered

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can you do it?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Are there extra charges for Beccles?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
