Non-slip bath coating in St Agnes

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Advice

How we handle non-slip bath coating in St Agnes

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Agnes use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairing versus replacing in St Agnes

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in St Agnes?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in St Agnes

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

How do I clean it?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We do not charge extra for travel to St Agnes. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
