Non-slip bath coating for Dunvant homes

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Non-slip bath coating in Dunvant without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Dunvant

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Take a look at our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We 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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Dunvant

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

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  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, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Dunvant

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Will the price change on the day?

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