Non-slip bath coating for Chorley homes

Can I fix it myself?

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 usually cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Chorley

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  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. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Chorley: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

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

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your PR7 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Repairing versus replacing in Chorley

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Chorley?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Chorley

A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chorley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
