Non-slip bath coating in Wick without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths, and people most frequently call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Wick and across the Vale of Glamorgan. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Should you replace it?

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

We charge the same across the UK, including Wick. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Set against the cost of replacement, 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.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Wick

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

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Wick

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you cover Wick?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Wick from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Vale of Glamorgan and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Wick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
