How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ferniegair

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, across shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Ferniegair questions

Are there extra charges for Ferniegair?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Ferniegair?

We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your ML3 postcode.

Do you come to Ferniegair?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Ferniegair from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

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.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Ferniegair?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

People usually call us when they notice something like this:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Ferniegair

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

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

For a price in Ferniegair, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
