Non-slip bath coating for Fence homes

Landlord and trade work in Fence

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Non-slip bath coating in Fence, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Fence

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

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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 pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

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

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 get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

If you’re in Fence and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Fence

Do you come to Fence?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Fence. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Fence.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Are there extra charges for Fence?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Fence

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
