Non-slip bath & shower coating in Crofton, Cumbria
Our technicians come to Crofton for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Non-slip bath coating in Crofton without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price

Advice
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Crofton
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before booking.
Materials we work on in Crofton
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Crofton clients choose us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
