Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas

How we handle non-slip bath coating in St Cadocs

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip 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

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit

See our pricing.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

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

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Questions from St Cadocs

How do I clean it?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in St Cadocs?

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so St Cadocs is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in St Cadocs, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
