Non-slip bath coating for Gairloch homes

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Non-slip bath coating in Gairloch, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

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.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Gairloch: your questions answered

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Gairloch.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Highland. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

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

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no area surcharge for Gairloch. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Gairloch and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Gairloch?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Common reasons people in Gairloch contact us are:

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

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
