Trusted non-slip bath coating in Orlestone

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Orlestone customers choose us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Orlestone

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, on acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally 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.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Orlestone

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you cover Orlestone?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Orlestone from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
