Non-slip bath coating in Teignmouth without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)

  • Outdoor surfaces

Common questions in Teignmouth

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

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do you come to Teignmouth?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Teignmouth. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it messy?

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

Landlord and trade work in Teignmouth

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

If you are in Teignmouth and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Teignmouth?

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:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How changes to the job are handled
