Non-slip bath coating near Bosorne

About our non-slip bath coating in Bosorne

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Bosorne

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Bosorne

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What affects the price in Bosorne

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most clients in Bosorne get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
