Non-slip bath & shower coating in Aldborough, North Yorkshire
Non-slip bath coating across Aldborough and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Non-slip bath coating in Aldborough, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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.

- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths

Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Aldborough. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Repair or replace in Aldborough?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
