Trusted non-slip bath coating in Bootle

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

About our non-slip bath coating in Bootle

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Bootle

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Sefton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How quickly can you book me in?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
