Honest limits

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Purfleet-on-Thames

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, in enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Prices and what affects them

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in Purfleet-on-Thames

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

Customers generally contact us about:

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

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

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
