About our non-slip bath coating in Borrowby
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Borrowby. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Borrowby: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Are there extra charges for Borrowby?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Borrowby as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repair or replace in Borrowby?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
