Non-slip bath coating near Kington

Why repair rather than replace?

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 Kington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

About our non-slip bath coating in Kington

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 wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Herefordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Kington

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather 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.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Herefordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to Kington?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Kington and the rest of Herefordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no charge for travel to Kington. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
