Non-slip bath coating for Inbhir Aora homes

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Inbhir Aora

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Inbhir Aora

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Inbhir Aora questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Inbhir Aora?

Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PA32 postcode.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PA32 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Inbhir Aora

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Common problems we fix in Inbhir Aora

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

Customers generally contact us about:

  • 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 your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
