Non-slip bath coating for St Marys homes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

About our non-slip bath coating in St Marys

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in St Marys and across Dundee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price non-slip bath coating

There’s no charge for travel to St Marys. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for St Marys

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

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

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DD3 postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you cover the whole of Dundee?

Everywhere in the UK, St Marys included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you come to St Marys?

We do. Technicians travel to St Marys from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Repairing versus replacing in St Marys

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
