Non-slip bath coating near Earls Colne

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Earls Colne

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

10 questions to ask before you book

Questions from Earls Colne

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Repairing versus replacing in Earls Colne

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Earls Colne. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Earls Colne

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
