About our non-slip bath coating in Timsbury

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bath and North East Somerset. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Timsbury

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Timsbury questions

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work in Timsbury?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Timsbury and the rest of Bath and North East Somerset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Timsbury

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Timsbury

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Timsbury. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
