Non-slip bath coating in Clatterbridge, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Clatterbridge and across Wirral. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Clatterbridge

There is no charge for travel to Clatterbridge. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Clatterbridge, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Clatterbridge?

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

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

How to compare quotes

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting 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 to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Clatterbridge

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Wirral. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will I see the coating?

Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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 repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Clatterbridge

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clatterbridge as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Clatterbridge, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
