About our non-slip bath coating in Tarrant Gunville

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Tarrant Gunville?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tarrant Gunville

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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tarrant Gunville as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Tarrant Gunville. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Tarrant Gunville, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tarrant Gunville. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Questions from Tarrant Gunville

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DT11 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Tarrant Gunville. Prices do not change with location.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Will I see the coating?

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

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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