Non-slip bath coating in Blackwell without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. 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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackwell
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
