About our non-slip bath coating in Hadlow

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hadlow, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Hadlow

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can you price it without visiting?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Hadlow?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Hadlow

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

Look out for any of the following:

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

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

There’s 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’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
