Non-Slip Bath Coating in Fazakerley
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays at your home in Fazakerley, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Fazakerley
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Fazakerley questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Fazakerley?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
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 quote.

When to call us in Fazakerley
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas

How we price non-slip bath coating
We do not charge extra for travel to Fazakerley. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
If you are in Fazakerley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
