Non-slip bath coating near Potton

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

About our non-slip bath coating in Potton

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We don’t charge extra for travel to Potton. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

FAQs for Potton

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How soon can you come?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How do I clean it?

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

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
