Non-slip bath coating in Shepton Montague

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Shepton Montague

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shepton Montague

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Prices and what affects them

You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

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

FAQs for Shepton Montague

Do I need to be at home?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What areas do you cover?

All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Shepton Montague.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are 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, so there is no premium for Shepton Montague. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
