Non-slip bath coating in Cerne Abbas

Repair or replace in Cerne Abbas?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Non-slip bath coating in Cerne Abbas without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, 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. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right, on shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic baths alike.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DT2 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Look out for any of the following:

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

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cerne Abbas. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
