Non-slip bath coating near Compton Valence

Non-slip bath coating in Compton Valence, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Compton Valence

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

We cover the whole UK, including Compton Valence and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

When can you do it?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Repair or replace in Compton Valence?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in Compton Valence

We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

Most clients in Compton Valence get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

Landlord and trade work in Compton Valence

For anyone letting property in or around Compton Valence, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
