About our non-slip bath coating in An t-Ollach

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in An t-Ollach

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in An t-Ollach?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in An t-Ollach

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including An t-Ollach. What changes the price is:

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

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in An t-Ollach, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for An t-Ollach. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
