Non-slip bath coating near Launton

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Non-slip bath coating in Launton without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Launton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Launton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Launton

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Launton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Launton

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OX26 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
