How we handle non-slip bath coating in Longstock

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Longstock as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

What affects the price in Longstock

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Longstock, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
