How we handle non-slip bath coating in Worsley Mesnes

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • 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 before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Worsley Mesnes

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Worsley Mesnes and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Worsley Mesnes: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens next?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Wigan.

Will I see the coating?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Worsley Mesnes?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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