About our non-slip bath coating in Harrowgate Hill
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Harrowgate Hill
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harrowgate Hill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What else we do in Harrowgate Hill
How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
