Non-slip bath & shower coating in Great Glen, Leicestershire
We travel to Great Glen for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Repair or replace in Great Glen?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

About our non-slip bath coating in Great Glen
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Great Glen
We charge the same across the UK, including Great Glen. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Glen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Questions from Great Glen
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Great Glen?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What to look for in a quote
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
