Book non-slip bath coating in Lamberhurst

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Lamberhurst

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Lamberhurst and across Kent. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Lamberhurst

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

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

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Lamberhurst

If you manage property in Lamberhurst, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

The process

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
