Need non-slip bath coating in Fiddlers Hamlet?

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

About our non-slip bath coating in Fiddlers Hamlet

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Fiddlers Hamlet and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Fiddlers Hamlet: your questions answered

Do you work in Fiddlers Hamlet?

We do. We send a technician to Fiddlers Hamlet for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

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

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

How soon can you come?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

When to call us in Fiddlers Hamlet

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Fiddlers Hamlet

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Can I fix it myself?

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 generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Fiddlers Hamlet

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

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Fiddlers Hamlet, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders
