How we handle non-slip bath coating in Portskerra

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Portskerra

We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Portskerra. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Portskerra

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you cover the entire of Highland?

Everywhere in the UK, Portskerra included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. 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. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave 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
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Repair or replace in Portskerra?

Instead, you could go for 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
