Non-slip bath coating in Greenhill

About our non-slip bath coating in Greenhill

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Greenhill

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

For a price in Greenhill, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What we’re called out for in Greenhill

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Greenhill

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Landlord and trade work in Greenhill

For anyone letting property in or around Greenhill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
