Non-slip bath coating for Veryan homes

Landlord and trade work in Veryan

For anyone letting property in or around Veryan, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Veryan as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Veryan

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Veryan

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you come to Veryan?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Veryan and the rest of Cornwall. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What affects the price in Veryan

We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Veryan

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Common reasons people in Veryan contact us are:

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

What your quote should include

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.
