Non-Slip Bath Coating for Coronation homes
Non-slip bath coating in and around Coronation: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Coronation
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Coronation
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Coronation
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
Everywhere in the UK, Coronation included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Coronation
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
