How we handle non-slip bath coating in Farringdon
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we are called out for in Farringdon
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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 will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
How we price non-slip bath coating
We don’t charge extra for travel to Farringdon. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Questions from Farringdon
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you come to Farringdon?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Farringdon and the rest of Sunderland. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Repair or replace in Farringdon?
Instead, you could go for 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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
