Non-slip bath coating for Buttermere homes

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Buttermere

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Buttermere

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you cover the entire of Wiltshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Buttermere included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Buttermere

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Buttermere get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
