About our non-slip bath coating in Pilsdon

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Pilsdon

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Pilsdon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Pilsdon

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Pilsdon and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Landlord and trade work in Pilsdon

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • How long it needs to cure
