Non-slip bath coating in Preston

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after 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, typically overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Non-slip bath coating in Preston, done in place

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. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, whatever the material.

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.

Repair or replace in Preston?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Preston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Preston?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions from Preston

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

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.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How soon can you come?

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

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price non-slip bath coating

You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Preston, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Preston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Preston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
