Non-slip bath coating near Blyford

About our non-slip bath coating in Blyford

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Blyford

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Landlord and trade work in Blyford

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What affects the price in Blyford

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Blyford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Are there extra charges for Blyford?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Do you cover Blyford?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Blyford. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
