Trusted non-slip bath coating in Lower Dean

Non-slip bath coating in Lower Dean, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Lower Dean

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What affects the price in Lower Dean

We charge the same across the UK, including Lower Dean. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lower Dean. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Lower Dean

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Dean as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
