About our non-slip bath coating in Aird Tong

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Aird Tong?

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 depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Questions from Aird Tong

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
