How we handle non-slip bath coating in Haughton
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
For a rural address like Haughton, we plan the journey and the visit in advance. Let us know about access and where to park, and we will take care of the rest.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go. Somewhere like Haughton needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the non-slip bath coating comes with us in one trip.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Older homes around Haughton may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. A repair keeps the original.
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes cost nothing and no obligation.

When to call us in Haughton
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- 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
In the older streets of Haughton, around landmarks like Church of St Andrew, it may still have its original cast iron bath, which is well worth repairing or re-enamelling rather than replacing.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
