Non-slip bath coating near Milton Combe

About our non-slip bath coating in Milton Combe

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Milton Combe, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Milton Combe

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Milton Combe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Milton Combe

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

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Questions from Milton Combe

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Milton Combe?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL20 postcode.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
