Non-slip bath coating in Scotforth without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, 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. We regularly repair shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

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 often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Scotforth

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Prices and what affects them

There is no area surcharge for Scotforth. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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