Non-slip bath coating in Arbroath

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Non-slip bath coating in Arbroath, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Arbroath. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Arbroath clients choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our pricing.

What affects the price in Arbroath

We do not charge extra for travel to Arbroath. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

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.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DD11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Our hiring checklist

Arbroath: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Arbroath is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arbroath

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price
