Non-slip bath coating in Braehead, done in place

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Braehead

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Lanarkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Braehead

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What non-slip bath coating costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your ML11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
