Non-slip bath coating in Horsleygate without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

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

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Horsleygate: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What affects the price in Horsleygate

We don’t charge extra for travel to Horsleygate. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Horsleygate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Horsleygate

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
