Trusted non-slip bath coating in Shaw

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Non-slip bath coating in Shaw without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Shaw?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.

Clients normally contact us about:

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

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Shaw

We charge the same across the UK, including Shaw. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

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

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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

Landlord and trade work in Shaw

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Shaw

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Shaw

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

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. We don’t 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.
