About our non-slip bath coating in Strood

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. 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.

Strood: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Strood?

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 typically cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Strood

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.
