Non-slip bath coating in Clifford without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

- The area to be treated is masked out.

- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Clifford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Clifford questions
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Leeds.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Clifford?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
