Non-slip bath coating at your home in Gilcrux
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Gilcrux
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Gilcrux?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gilcrux for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
We cover the whole UK, including Gilcrux and the rest of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Gilcrux
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A 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.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Work done at your home or business

What we do, step by step

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Landlord and trade work in Gilcrux
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gilcrux use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
