Non-slip bath coating in Long Row

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Long Row

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. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Long Row: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Long Row included. Travel is included in the price.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Long Row?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can landlords book you?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Long Row. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Long Row, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repairing versus replacing in Long Row

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
