About our non-slip bath coating in Boughton Corner

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Boughton Corner

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Boughton Corner?

We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Boughton Corner

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Look out for these signs:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
