When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Non-slip bath coating in Stansted Mountfitchet without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Stansted Mountfitchet?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stansted Mountfitchet

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Stansted Mountfitchet

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you come to Stansted Mountfitchet?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Stansted Mountfitchet. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Stansted Mountfitchet?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Stansted Mountfitchet, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
