Non-slip bath coating for Broughton homes

Non-slip bath coating in Broughton, done in place

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 a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Broughton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broughton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Broughton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

FAQs for Broughton

How soon can you come?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your YO17 postcode.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Prices and what affects them

You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
