Non-slip bath coating in Galemire, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Galemire as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Galemire. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you’re in Galemire and want a price, the easiest route is photos: 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 Galemire?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

FAQs for Galemire

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Galemire included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Galemire

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
