Trusted non-slip bath coating in Smoo

Non-slip bath coating in Smoo, done in place

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, in wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.

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.

When to call us in Smoo

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 before booking.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Smoo

We do not charge extra for travel to Smoo. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Smoo, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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 remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
