How we handle non-slip bath coating in Donkey Street

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A DIY attempt is not 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 photos.

What affects the price in Donkey Street

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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 price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Common questions in Donkey Street

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Donkey Street

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Donkey Street

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Donkey Street

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Most jobs done in one visit
