Non-slip bath coating near Carclaze

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Carclaze

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Carclaze

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Carclaze, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Carclaze

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Our hiring checklist

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Carclaze. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
