About our non-slip bath coating in Alston
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Alston as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Landlord and trade work in Alston
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Alston
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are there extra charges for Alston?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Alston.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Alston?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
