Non-slip bath coating near Montrose

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Montrose

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Montrose as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Montrose

The alternatives are 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Montrose clients choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Montrose. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Montrose questions

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are there extra charges for Montrose?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will you leave a mess?

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