Trusted non-slip bath coating in Newton Poppleford

Non-slip bath coating in Newton Poppleford without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Newton Poppleford

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Newton Poppleford clients choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We leave the room as we found it

  • A fixed quote before booking

What a repair cannot fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Newton Poppleford

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Newton Poppleford included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Newton Poppleford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

We price from pictures 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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
