How we handle non-slip bath coating in Fulbourn

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Fulbourn

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Fulbourn

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Common questions in Fulbourn

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you cover the entire of Cambridgeshire?

All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
