Non-slip bath coating at your home in Hathershaw
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, across wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hathershaw
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- 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 will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hathershaw
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your photos

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Hathershaw
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Hathershaw included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What else we do in Hathershaw

Smooth surfaces are 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.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your OL8 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
