Non-slip bath coating for Melcombe Regis homes

What we’re called out for in Melcombe Regis

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Melcombe Regis

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can usually put it right.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We do not charge extra for travel to Melcombe Regis. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Melcombe Regis get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Melcombe Regis

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, 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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Questions from Melcombe Regis

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Repairing versus replacing in Melcombe Regis

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A 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 combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
