Non-slip bath coating for Gartmore homes

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Gartmore

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Gartmore questions

Do you work in Gartmore?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gartmore and the rest of Stirling. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Gartmore. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Repairing versus replacing in Gartmore

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Gartmore?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

What affects the price in Gartmore

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gartmore. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

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 you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
