Non-slip bath coating for Temple Fortune homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

About our non-slip bath coating in Temple Fortune

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Temple Fortune

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently 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.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no area surcharge for Temple Fortune. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Temple Fortune, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Repair or replace in Temple Fortune?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Temple Fortune?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
