- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

About our non-slip bath coating in Prestbury
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Prestbury
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Prestbury. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash

Landlords, agents and businesses in Prestbury
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Prestbury use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
