Non-slip bath coating in Kingston near Lewes

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

About our non-slip bath coating in Kingston near Lewes

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.

In a village like Kingston near Lewes, some baths have been in for many years. If the bath is sound, non-slip bath coating gives it a new lease of life without disturbing the rest of the room.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Kingston near Lewes

My house in Kingston near Lewes is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Usually, yes. Older baths and shower trays are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we’d recommend.

Can you repair baths and shower trays in a rental near Lewes station?

Yes. We repair baths and shower trays between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and several addresses can be quoted together.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

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

How do I clean it?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are there extra charges for Kingston near Lewes?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When to call us in Kingston near Lewes

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Rented homes near Lewes station (about 1.8 miles north-east) change hands often, and repairing baths and shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there. Somewhere as small as Kingston near Lewes, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the non-slip bath coating works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

For landlords and businesses

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

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Older homes around Kingston near Lewes may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BN7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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.
