Trusted non-slip bath coating in Cabal

Common questions in Cabal

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you cover the entire of Herefordshire?

All of Herefordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

When can you do it?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

About our non-slip bath coating in Cabal

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Cabal

You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Cabal, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

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. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
