What non-slip bath coating costs

There’s no charge for travel to Clifton. The price depends on:

What kind of damage it is
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
How easy the damage is to reach
The material

There are no surprise 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.

Getting a price from photos

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

Any details about the material
A picture taken from further back
The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Clifton and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Clifton

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Clifton

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Clifton?

Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

We clean and degrease the standing area.
The area to be treated is masked out.
We apply the clear textured coating.
We lift the masking for a clean edge.
Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

Let us know which floor the room is on
Let us know about parking or access
Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PR4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

How to look after a re-enamelled bath

What we’re called out for in Clifton

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

About Clifton

Clifton is about 4 miles north-west of Penwortham, in Lancashire. We work in every kind of home, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, plus businesses and rented homes. Clifton is one of 482 towns and villages in Lancashire we cover. You can also see our page for Liverpool, about 25 miles away.

Jobs in PR4 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. That includes homes on Clifton Green, First Avenue and Clifton Lane. We also cover the places around Clifton: Newton-with-Scales (1 mile west), Salwick (1 mile north), Treales (2 miles north-west), Freckleton (2 miles south-west) and Hall Cross (2 miles west). Further out, we also cover Preston (5 miles east), Chorley (11 miles south-east), Lytham St Anne's (8 miles west), Bamber Bridge (7 miles south-east), Leyland (7 miles south-east) and Fulwood (4 miles east).

Around Clifton

Typical jobs here are in homes near The Windmill Tavern, Newton Bluecoat Church of England Primary School and St John the Evangelist's Church, among other places. The nearest railway station is Salwick station, about 1 mile north of the centre. A little further out are Preston Castle (3.4 miles east) and Royal Preston Hospital (4.6 miles east).

Landlord and trade work in Clifton

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Clifton

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
