About our non-slip bath coating in Greenside
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. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CA17 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Greenside
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Greenside?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

What else we do in Greenside
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
