Non-slip bath coating for Llanrhidian Higher homes

Llanrhidian Higher questions

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Non-slip bath coating in Llanrhidian Higher, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, 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 with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanrhidian Higher as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

10 questions to ask before booking

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Llanrhidian Higher

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Llanrhidian Higher. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
