What affects the price in Droylsden
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Droylsden and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Non-slip bath coating in Droylsden, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common problems we fix in Droylsden
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for 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. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Questions from Droylsden
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you come to Droylsden?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Droylsden from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
