Non-Slip Bath Coating in Cross Lane
Non-slip bath coating in and around Cross Lane: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What affects the price in Cross Lane
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Non-slip bath coating in Cross Lane, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Cross Lane questions
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are there extra charges for Cross Lane?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Should you replace it?
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 treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
