Non-slip bath coating in Penselwood, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we are called out for in Penselwood

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

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Penselwood

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your BA9 postcode.

Do you work in Penselwood?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Penselwood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

What affects the price in Penselwood

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You do not 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’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic baths

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
