About our non-slip bath coating in Shearston

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Shearston and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repairing versus replacing in Shearston

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Shearston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
