About our non-slip bath coating in Coalsnaughton

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Coalsnaughton questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Do you come to Coalsnaughton?

We do. We send a technician to Coalsnaughton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Coalsnaughton and the rest of Clackmannanshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Coalsnaughton

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Coalsnaughton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Coalsnaughton
