Trusted non-slip bath coating in South Street

About our non-slip bath coating in South Street

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can typically put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in South Street

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What affects the price in South Street

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

For anyone letting property in or around South Street, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Street use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in South Street?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Should you replace it?

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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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.
