Non-slip bath coating in Dowally

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Dowally

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Dowally

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no charge for travel to Dowally. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

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. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PH9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
