10 questions to ask before you book

Non-slip bath coating in Steep, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Steep and across Hampshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Steep

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

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.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down 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 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
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
