About our non-slip bath coating in Upton-by-Chester

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs

You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole bath or shower tray

Most clients in Upton-by-Chester get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Upton-by-Chester. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Our hiring checklist

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Landlord and trade work in Upton-by-Chester

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upton-by-Chester as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Upton-by-Chester

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the entire of Cheshire West and Chester?

Everywhere in the UK, Upton-by-Chester included. Travel is included in the price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
