Non-slip bath coating in Bowness-on-Solway without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

10 questions to ask before you book

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work 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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Bowness-on-Solway

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

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Bowness-on-Solway

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Bowness-on-Solway?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CA7 postcode.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Repair or replace in Bowness-on-Solway?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually cheaper.

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.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

We don’t add 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.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
