Need non-slip bath coating in Bridge of Cally?

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bridge of Cally

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across shower trays, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

In a village or hamlet like Bridge of Cally, homes are often older cottages, farmhouses and barn conversions. Many have heavy cast iron baths or baths in awkward spots, and getting a bath out along a lane or up narrow stairs is hard work. Repairing in place avoids that.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

How we price non-slip bath coating

Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Bridge of Cally

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Common reasons people in Bridge of Cally contact us are:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Netherton Church, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Bridge of Cally

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Replacement in Bridge of Cally means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Fixed quotes from pictures
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place
