Trusted non-slip bath coating in Washford

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Washford

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.

Questions from Washford

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you cover Washford?

We do. We send a technician to Washford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What a repair cannot fix

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace in Washford?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Washford

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
