Non-slip bath coating in Kingsgate

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Kingsgate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Kingsgate

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Kingsgate: your questions answered

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Kingsgate?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will you leave a mess?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Kingsgate

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our prices page.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CT10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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