Non-slip bath coating for Buckden homes

Buckden questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Do you come to Buckden?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Buckden from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Cambridgeshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Non-slip bath coating in Buckden, done in place

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Buckden?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no area surcharge for Buckden. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Buckden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Buckden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PE19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
