About our non-slip bath coating in Clayton

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bradford. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Common questions in Clayton

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Clayton

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Clayton

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Clayton

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Clayton

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Clayton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
