About our non-slip bath coating in Forest Moor

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are 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. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Forest Moor

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Forest Moor included. Travel is included in the price.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Forest Moor

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no area surcharge for Forest Moor. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
