About our non-slip bath coating in Allaston

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Allaston

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Allaston?

We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat 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
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repair or replace in Allaston?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, 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.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Allaston

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We leave the room as we found it

Take a look at our full price list.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
