  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Our hiring checklist

Non-slip bath coating in Gelli-deg, 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 regularly repair acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Gelli-deg

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. 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. Send the address, pictures and access details.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gelli-deg. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Gelli-deg

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

Questions from Gelli-deg

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are there extra charges for Gelli-deg?

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

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Gelli-deg?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will I see the coating?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, 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.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our prices page.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
