About our non-slip bath coating in Buttrills
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Buttrills
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Buttrills use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
