Trusted non-slip bath coating in Clivocast

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Clivocast

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Clivocast as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Clivocast

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Shetland Islands and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Clivocast

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Clivocast

What areas do you cover?

All of the Shetland Islands, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What affects the price in Clivocast

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 generally the cheaper route.

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