Non-slip bath & shower coating in Davyhulme, Trafford

Non-slip bath coating in Davyhulme without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What non-slip bath coating costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
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 morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Davyhulme: your questions answered
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Repair or replace in Davyhulme?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
