Non-slip bath coating in Kessingland

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kessingland

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

About our non-slip bath coating in Kessingland

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no area surcharge for Kessingland. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Kessingland and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Kessingland

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kessingland: your questions answered

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are there extra charges for Kessingland?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I clean it?

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

How soon can you come?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
