How we handle non-slip bath coating in Flixborough
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Repairing versus replacing in Flixborough
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Flixborough: your questions answered
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you work in Flixborough?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Flixborough and the rest of North Lincolnshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Flixborough?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
Prices and what affects them
There’s no area surcharge for Flixborough. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
