About our non-slip bath coating in Bicker Bar
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Bicker Bar
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace in Bicker Bar?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- 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

What non-slip bath coating costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
