Trusted non-slip bath coating in Hastings Old Town

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Hastings Old Town

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. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

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

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hastings Old Town

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for 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. 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.

  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Hastings Old Town

We charge the same across the UK, including Hastings Old Town. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
