Non-slip bath coating at your home in Alton
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What else we do in Alton
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
Questions from Alton
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Alton.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Alton. Prices don’t change with location.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S42 postcode.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them
There is no charge for travel to Alton. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Alton?
Smooth surfaces are 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.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One visit for most repairs
