Non-slip bath coating in Lane End 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. We’re frequently asked to fix worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lane End. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Lane End?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
