Choosing a repair company

Non-slip bath coating in Braiswick without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for Braiswick

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you come to Braiswick?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Braiswick and the rest of Essex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Essex.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the whole of Essex?

Across the UK, so Braiswick is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Braiswick

There is no area surcharge for Braiswick. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
