About our non-slip bath coating in Gussage St Michael

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, across resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no charge for travel to Gussage St Michael. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

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

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Questions from Gussage St Michael

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Are you accredited?

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

Are there extra charges for Gussage St Michael?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you work in Gussage St Michael?

We do. We send a technician to Gussage St Michael for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Gussage St Michael

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gussage St Michael as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Gussage St Michael

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • No extra charge for your area
