Non-slip bath coating in Shawbost without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Shawbost

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Shawbost, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What non-slip bath coating costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos 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. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common questions in Shawbost

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Na h-Eileanan Siar. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

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.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Shawbost

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a 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 Shawbost. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
