Non-slip bath coating for Wembury homes

About our non-slip bath coating in Wembury

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re frequently asked to fix worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Wembury

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

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Wembury questions

Are there extra charges for Wembury?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will I see the coating?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

What affects the price in Wembury

We don’t charge extra for travel to Wembury. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wembury

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

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wembury use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
