Non-slip bath coating in Swanmore

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Swanmore

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. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Swanmore

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swanmore as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Swanmore

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

See our prices page.

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When to call us in Swanmore

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

FAQs for Swanmore

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you cover Swanmore?

We do. We send a technician to Swanmore for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is it messy?

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

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
