Non-slip bath coating in Chorley without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Chorley and across Cheshire East. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we work on in Chorley

What affects the price in Chorley

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Chorley

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

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

Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

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

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
