Non-Slip Bath Coating for Grimsthorpe homes
Non-slip bath coating in and around Grimsthorpe: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Non-slip bath coating in Grimsthorpe, done in place
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. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
When to call us in Grimsthorpe
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Prices and what affects them
There’s no charge for travel to Grimsthorpe. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
FAQs for Grimsthorpe
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Grimsthorpe?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Grimsthorpe included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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.
