Non-slip bath coating for Postling Green homes

Non-slip bath coating in Postling Green, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Postling Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common questions in Postling Green

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Postling Green

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

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repair or replace in Postling Green?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
