Bickingcott questions

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your EX36 postcode.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Bickingcott

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Choosing a repair company

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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Bickingcott

  • No need to remove anything
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are

What affects the price in Bickingcott

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bickingcott. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Bickingcott, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Most clients in Bickingcott get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
