What affects the price in Harberton

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Non-slip bath coating in Harberton without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Harberton?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Harberton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?

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. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Harberton

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Harberton

Do you cover the entire of Devon?

Everywhere in the UK, Harberton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Harberton?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
