Non-slip bath coating in Priory Vale

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Non-slip bath coating in Priory Vale without replacing anything

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. Our technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not 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.

How we price non-slip bath coating

We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Priory Vale. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Priory Vale: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do you come to Priory Vale?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Priory Vale. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Priory Vale customers choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  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

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Priory Vale, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Priory Vale?

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas
