Non-slip bath coating for Larling homes

Larling: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Larling and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Are there extra charges for Larling?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

About our non-slip bath coating in Larling

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Larling?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Larling

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Larling

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Larling

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
