How we handle non-slip bath coating in Larkhall

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

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Larkhall as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Larkhall

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What do you need from me?

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

Do you come to Larkhall?

We do. Technicians travel to Larkhall from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Larkhall?

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BA1 postcode.

Repair or replace in Larkhall?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business

How we price non-slip bath coating

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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 photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Larkhall?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish

  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, normally overnight.
