Non-slip bath coating in Torbrex without replacing anything

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Torbrex questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Torbrex and the rest of Stirling. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Torbrex?

Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your FK7 postcode.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Torbrex

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairing versus replacing in Torbrex

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why Torbrex clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

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.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
