How we handle non-slip bath coating in Luxulyan

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

We do not charge extra for travel to Luxulyan. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

If you’re in Luxulyan and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Luxulyan: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

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

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Do you come to Luxulyan?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Luxulyan. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Luxulyan, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

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