The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

About our non-slip bath coating in Bradfield Combust

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Bradfield Combust

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

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 price the job the same day in most cases.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Bradfield Combust: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Bradfield Combust?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I clean it?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you come to Bradfield Combust?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bradfield Combust and the rest of Suffolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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