Non-slip bath coating in Greenhills, done in place
It’s popular with 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. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can normally put it right.
Somewhere as small as Greenhills, you’ll find cottages, farmhouses and converted buildings. Many have heavy cast iron baths or baths in awkward spots, and removing a bath from an older house is rarely simple. Non-slip bath coating in place avoids all of that.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Greenhills as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Greenhills: your questions answered
I let a flat near Dunlop station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do.
Will you travel to Greenhills?
Yes, we cover the whole UK, villages included, at no extra charge.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Common problems we fix in Greenhills
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
If you let a flat or house near Dunlop station (about 2.4 miles east), we repair baths and shower trays between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly.
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who turns up on the day
What affects the price in Greenhills
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on. Somewhere like Greenhills needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the non-slip bath coating, so there is no second trip.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can

Related advice
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. In an older home in a village like Greenhills, replacing a bath or shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
