FAQs for Holcombe

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What information do you need?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your EX7 postcode.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Holcombe

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Holcombe. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for 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 charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Holcombe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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.

When to call us in Holcombe

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

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What preparation is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether they match the colour on site
