Non-slip bath coating for Cawkwell homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place

  • One visit for most repairs

Non-slip bath coating in Cawkwell without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Cawkwell?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Look out for any of the following:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
