Need non-slip bath coating in Selborne?

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Selborne

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Selborne and across Hampshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Selborne

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

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Selborne?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

See our pricing.

Landlord and trade work in Selborne

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Selborne as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 booking.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Selborne questions

Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?

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

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.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you work in Selborne?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Selborne from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
