About our non-slip bath coating in Hulme Walfield

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hulme Walfield. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Hulme Walfield

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hulme Walfield and the rest of Cheshire East. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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

What we are called out for in Hulme Walfield

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet 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
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Hulme Walfield

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

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
