Non-slip bath coating in Avoch

Non-slip bath coating in Avoch without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Avoch

If you manage property in Avoch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

What we’re called out for in Avoch

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Common reasons people in Avoch contact us are:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, 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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
