Non-Slip Bath Coating for Bank Fold homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Bank Fold, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Bank Fold
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Bank Fold
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Bank Fold
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths

Bank Fold questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
