Non-slip bath coating in Butt Lane, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Butt Lane and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Butt Lane. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Butt Lane, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Butt Lane. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 pictures.
Common questions in Butt Lane
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Butt Lane?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
