Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

About our non-slip bath coating in Westmuir

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Westmuir and across Angus. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Questions from Westmuir

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Westmuir?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Westmuir and the rest of Angus. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

The things customers generally mention when they call are:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DD8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
