Non-slip bath coating in Poulner, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right, on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

We do not charge extra for travel to Poulner. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Poulner, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Poulner: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it messy?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Poulner

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we are called out for in Poulner

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
