About our non-slip bath coating in High Friarside
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Friarside use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Common problems we fix in High Friarside
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

High Friarside: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover High Friarside?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to High Friarside from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When a repair isn’t the answer
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’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Wet room floors (ask us)

How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for High Friarside. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
