Non-slip bath coating for Dunwich homes

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Advice

Non-slip bath coating in Dunwich, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunwich

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Dunwich, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Dunwich: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed 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.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When to call us in Dunwich

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Dunwich

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area
