Non-slip bath coating in Higher Walton without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

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

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  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, usually overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Higher Walton: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Higher Walton and the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
