About our non-slip bath coating in Syleham

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Syleham

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Syleham

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

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

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

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Syleham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

If you’re in Syleham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Syleham. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Syleham questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you charge for travel?

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover Syleham?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Syleham and the rest of Suffolk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How do I clean it?

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
