Non-slip bath coating in and around Acton: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.

Non-slip bath coating in Acton, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cheshire East. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Acton
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Acton.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
If you manage property in Acton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When to call us in Acton
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Aftercare advice
When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Acton. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Acton
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
