Non-slip bath & shower coating in Copthorne, Shropshire
Non-slip bath coating in and around Copthorne: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Copthorne
There is no charge for travel to Copthorne. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Copthorne
It suits 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 work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Copthorne. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Landlord and trade work in Copthorne
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
