Trusted non-slip bath coating in Shieldaig

Non-slip bath coating in Shieldaig without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

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.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Shieldaig, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
