Non-slip bath & shower coating in Aston, Derbyshire
Our technicians come to Aston for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Aston
It suits 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, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What non-slip bath coating costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Aston. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

FAQs for Aston
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Aston included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you cover Aston?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Aston and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
