Non-slip bath coating for Cilgerran homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Cilgerran

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will 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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

When we’d 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Cilgerran

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

What we are called out for in Cilgerran

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What your quote should include

  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Cilgerran

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most customers in Cilgerran get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace in Cilgerran?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Cilgerran

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
