Trusted non-slip bath coating in Ringmore

Non-slip bath coating in Ringmore without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ringmore and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  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, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

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

Ringmore questions

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you work in Ringmore?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ringmore from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are there extra charges for Ringmore?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

What non-slip bath coating costs

We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ringmore. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. 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.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

Common problems we fix in Ringmore

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

The things clients typically mention when they call 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
