How we handle non-slip bath coating in Chipping

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Chipping

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Chipping. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

  • Outdoor surfaces

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

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. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Chipping, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Chipping

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chipping

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chipping use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
