Non-slip bath coating near Bathpool

Bathpool: your questions answered

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Bathpool and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bathpool

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Bathpool and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Bathpool

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

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
