Trusted non-slip bath coating in Nursted

Non-slip bath coating in Nursted without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Nursted questions

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common problems we fix in Nursted

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

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

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nursted

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nursted use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Related advice

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
