Non-slip bath coating for Lanjeth homes

Non-slip bath coating in Lanjeth without replacing anything

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Work for landlords and builders

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

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Lanjeth

Smooth surfaces are 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.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Lanjeth customers choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lanjeth, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for 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
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Lanjeth

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Are there extra charges for Lanjeth?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Lanjeth. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Lanjeth

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
