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, including clearing up.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Donnington

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Donnington

We do not charge extra for travel to Donnington. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Donnington, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Donnington

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Donnington

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Donnington as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Donnington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What a repair can’t fix

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’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Donnington?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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