Non-slip bath coating near Defford

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Defford

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Defford

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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

Landlord and trade work in Defford

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repair or replace in Defford?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
