Non-slip bath coating near Lychpit

Non-slip bath coating in Lychpit without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip 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 will get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Lychpit

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Lychpit

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to care for the finish
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Lychpit: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How do I clean it?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

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

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Lychpit, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
