Non-Slip Bath Coating in Somerset

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Somerset

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. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

What it costs in Somerset

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Landlords, agents and businesses in Somerset

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Common problems we fix in Somerset

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Somerset

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

Everywhere in the UK, Somerset included. Travel is included in the price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Somerset.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
