About our non-slip bath coating in Renfrew

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Renfrew, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Renfrew as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

FAQs for Renfrew

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PA4 postcode.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

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

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Renfrewshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What we are called out for in Renfrew

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

Common reasons people in Renfrew contact us are:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What preparation is included
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Renfrew

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
