Trusted non-slip bath coating in Preston Plucknett

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Preston Plucknett

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t 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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What non-slip bath coating costs

We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Preston Plucknett

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  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, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.
