About our non-slip bath coating in Kilndown

It’s popular with 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. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Kilndown

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

What affects the price in Kilndown

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kilndown

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
