Trusted non-slip bath coating in Portreath

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Portreath

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace in Portreath?

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 adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Portreath. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are

FAQs for Portreath

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover Portreath?

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

What areas do you cover?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What we are called out for in Portreath

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Choosing a repair company

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Portreath

We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
