Non-Slip Bath Coating for Chester Moor homes
Non-slip bath coating in and around Chester Moor: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Chester Moor
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What else we do in Chester Moor
How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Chester Moor questions
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
