FAQs for Rockbourne

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is my repair covered?

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

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Non-slip bath coating in Rockbourne, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Rockbourne

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Rockbourne

  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Everything repaired in place

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no area surcharge for Rockbourne. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back

Most customers in Rockbourne get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
