Non-slip bath coating in Longdon

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Longdon

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Longdon

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairing versus replacing in Longdon

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Longdon

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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