Non-slip bath coating near Longslow

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Non-slip bath coating in Longslow, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Longslow questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What affects the price in Longslow

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Longslow

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

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

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Repairing versus replacing in Longslow

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
