Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Knowsley

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

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Knowsley

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Knowsley

There is no charge for travel to Knowsley. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Knowsley, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

When to call us in Knowsley

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Knowsley

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, 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 normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our full price list.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 pictures.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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