How we handle non-slip bath coating in Dallington

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Dallington and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Common questions in Dallington

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When to call us in Dallington

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
