Trusted non-slip bath coating in Crantock

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Crantock

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most often call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Repairing versus replacing in Crantock

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our full price list.

What affects the price in Crantock

We don’t charge extra for travel to Crantock. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most clients in Crantock get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Crantock questions

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work in Crantock?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Crantock. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
