Non-Slip Bath Coating for Bickershaw homes
Our repair technicians come to Bickershaw for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Common problems we fix in Bickershaw
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas

Non-slip bath coating in Bickershaw, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Common questions in Bickershaw
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Landlord and trade work in Bickershaw
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bickershaw use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bickershaw. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Repairing versus replacing in Bickershaw
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
