Non-slip bath coating for Gourock homes

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Gourock

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Gourock: your questions answered

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Inverclyde.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What information do you need?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Do you cover the whole of Inverclyde?

All of Inverclyde, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Inverclyde and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo 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 you’re under no obligation.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Gourock

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Get a quote

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
