Non-slip bath coating for Walkden homes

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Walkden, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Walkden

It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Walkden: your questions answered

Will I see the coating?

Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I clean it?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you come to Walkden?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Walkden and the rest of Salford. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

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

Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Walkden

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

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Walkden, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Walkden

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

Common reasons people in Walkden contact us include:

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

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