Non-slip bath coating for Heart's Delight homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Heart's Delight

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Heart's Delight and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

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

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Heart's Delight

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders
