Non-slip bath coating for Berrynarbor homes

Non-slip bath coating in Berrynarbor without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can generally put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Most jobs done in one visit

Read our pricing.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Berrynarbor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Berrynarbor, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Berrynarbor: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Berrynarbor.

Will I see the coating?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Berrynarbor?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
