The process
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Clareton
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Clareton. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Questions from Clareton
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Clareton.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
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.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
