Need non-slip bath coating in Bathway?

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

About our non-slip bath coating in Bathway

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Bathway

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bathway, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Questions from Bathway

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

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

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Bathway?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
