Trusted non-slip bath coating in Newarthill

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Newarthill

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, 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, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Newarthill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repair or replace in Newarthill?

Instead, you could go for 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. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Newarthill

What areas do you cover?

All of North Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

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 will say so.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

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.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Landlord and trade work in Newarthill

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newarthill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
