  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

10 questions to ask before booking

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Fairbourne

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Fairbourne

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

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

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Fairbourne, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise 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.

FAQs for Fairbourne

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Will I see the coating?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
