Need non-slip bath coating in An t-Ob?

Non-slip bath coating at your home in An t-Ob

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What affects the price in An t-Ob

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

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in An t-Ob, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

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

Common problems we fix in An t-Ob

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Look out for any of the following:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
