Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Dunvegan

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Dunvegan

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Common problems we fix in Dunvegan

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • What preparation is included

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Dunvegan

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Most clients in Dunvegan get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Dunvegan, and we will reply with a fixed price.
