Non-slip bath coating in Bossiney

Non-slip bath coating in Bossiney, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Bossiney

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

What we’re called out for in Bossiney

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Common questions in Bossiney

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you cover Bossiney?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bossiney. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Bossiney. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bossiney, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

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 job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
