Non-slip bath coating near Lyatts

About our non-slip bath coating in Lyatts

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

There’s no charge for travel to Lyatts. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Lyatts

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lyatts as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Lyatts

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you come to Lyatts?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Lyatts. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Lyatts

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
