How we handle non-slip bath coating in Padstow

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Padstow?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Common questions in Padstow

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

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

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL28 postcode.

How do I clean it?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How it works

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. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  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. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

How we price non-slip bath coating

We don’t charge extra for travel to Padstow. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
