Non-slip bath coating in St. Ninians

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Non-slip bath coating in St. Ninians without replacing anything

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

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

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in St. Ninians?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

When to call us in St. Ninians

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.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not 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.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We don’t charge extra for travel to St. Ninians. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

If you’re in St. Ninians and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
