Non-slip bath coating for Wistaston homes

What non-slip bath coating costs

We do not charge extra for travel to Wistaston. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Wistaston get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wistaston

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Wistaston?

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

Common questions in Wistaston

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, typically overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Common problems we fix in Wistaston

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.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

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

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Wistaston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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.

Materials we work on in Wistaston

  • Acrylic baths
  • Shower trays

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Enamelled baths

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
