Need non-slip bath coating in Grampound?

When to call us in Grampound

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

About our non-slip bath coating in Grampound

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, across shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

FAQs for Grampound

Are there extra charges for Grampound?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Prices and what affects them

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
