Can I fix it myself?

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 typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Non-slip bath coating in Ffairfach, done in place

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 resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SA19 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
