Non-slip bath coating in Clifton, done in place
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. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Clifton: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are there extra charges for Clifton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Clifton. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Clifton
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
