Non-slip bath coating in Grange without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step
You don’t 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 usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Grange. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Grange
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Are there extra charges for Grange?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Repair or replace in Grange?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Grange. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Landlord and trade work in Grange
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
For anyone letting property in or around Grange, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
