Non-slip bath coating in Minsmere, done in place

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Minsmere as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

FAQs for Minsmere

Do you come to Minsmere?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Minsmere?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your IP17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
