Non-slip bath coating for Coleford homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Coleford

It’s a clear, textured coating, 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. We’re often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Coleford and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Coleford. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Common problems we fix in Coleford

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Coleford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
