Trusted non-slip bath coating in Mangotsfield

Non-slip bath coating in Mangotsfield without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths

Mangotsfield questions

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What we are called out for in Mangotsfield

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Mangotsfield

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Mangotsfield customers choose us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
