How we handle non-slip bath coating in Fressingfield

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

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Fressingfield

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP21 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 booking.

Materials we repair

  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Shower trays

For anyone letting property in or around Fressingfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
