Book non-slip bath coating in Preston

Preston: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Preston?

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Preston

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Preston, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Common problems we fix in Preston

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Clients usually contact us about:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Preston

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

What affects the price in Preston

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TA4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
