Non-slip bath coating in Densole without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Common problems we fix in Densole

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

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

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
