Non-slip bath coating near Netherton

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Netherton

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Netherton

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your G13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

The process

There’s 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. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Netherton

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Do you cover the entire of Glasgow?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are there extra charges for Netherton?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything

When we’d advise against a repair

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

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

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Netherton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Common problems we fix in Netherton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
