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

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Farndish
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us) alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Repair or replace in Farndish?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Farndish: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
