Non-slip bath coating at your home in Durweston

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For landlords and businesses

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What affects the price in Durweston

There’s no charge for travel to Durweston. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Durweston

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Durweston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When a repair is not 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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Durweston

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

When to call us in Durweston

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