Non-slip bath coating for Shitterton homes

What we’re called out for in Shitterton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included

  • What aftercare is recommended

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Shitterton

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shitterton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Shitterton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

The process

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Shitterton

Will there be a smell?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
