About our non-slip bath coating in Carmichael

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When to call us in Carmichael

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

Before you book anyone

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, 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 apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

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 pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Carmichael: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Carmichael?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across South Lanarkshire.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Carmichael

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Carmichael customers choose us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are

  • Usually one visit, start to finish

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
