Non-slip bath coating in Goatacre, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Goatacre. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SN11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Goatacre

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Goatacre

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will I see the coating?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Goatacre

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
