Non-slip bath coating in Killen, done in place

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. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Killen

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Killen and the rest of Highland. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What non-slip bath coating costs

There is no charge for travel to Killen. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Killen, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Killen

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Common problems we fix in Killen

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
