How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ashton
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are 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. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Ashton
Do you cover the entire of Northamptonshire?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ashton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Ashton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Ashton
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
