Non-slip bath coating for Smallbridge homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Non-slip bath coating in Smallbridge without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Smallbridge?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Smallbridge: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Smallbridge.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

We cover the entire UK, including Smallbridge and the rest of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Smallbridge

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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