Non-slip bath coating in Michelmersh, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

What we can’t put right

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Michelmersh?

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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Michelmersh questions

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

When can you do it?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Michelmersh included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are there extra charges for Michelmersh?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What non-slip bath coating costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Michelmersh

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Aftercare advice
