It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating in East Farleigh without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

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

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

East Farleigh: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

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 Kent?

We cover the whole UK, including East Farleigh and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

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

Repair or replace in East Farleigh?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why choose Surface Doctor in East Farleigh

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our pricing.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

Most customers in East Farleigh get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
