Book non-slip bath coating in West Wemyss

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Non-slip bath coating at your home in West Wemyss

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in West Wemyss

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.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

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

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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.

Take a look at our pricing.

What affects the price in West Wemyss

Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
