About our non-slip bath coating in Broadbottom

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Broadbottom: your questions answered

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Broadbottom?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Tameside.

Do you come to Broadbottom?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Broadbottom. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you cover the entire of Tameside?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Broadbottom. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Are there extra charges for Broadbottom?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Broadbottom

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When to call us in Broadbottom

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Broadbottom. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Broadbottom

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Everything repaired in place

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
