Non-slip bath coating in Balemartine

Non-slip bath coating in Balemartine without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Balemartine as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Balemartine?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Clients generally contact us about:

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

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Balemartine

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PA77 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Balemartine

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Will I see the coating?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in Balemartine get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Balemartine?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Balemartine. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
