Need non-slip bath coating in Grimstone?

Non-slip bath coating in Grimstone without replacing anything

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. We’re often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Grimstone

The alternatives are 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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Questions from Grimstone

Is it messy?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Grimstone?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Grimstone. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

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 typically cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in Grimstone

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Look out for these signs:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
