Non-Slip Bath Coating for Hawkshaw homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Hawkshaw, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Hawkshaw
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. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
There is no area surcharge for Hawkshaw. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Hawkshaw questions
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work in Hawkshaw?
We do. We send a technician to Hawkshaw for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Repairing versus replacing in Hawkshaw
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bury and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
