How we handle non-slip bath coating in Higher Folds
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
There is no charge for travel to Higher Folds. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Higher Folds. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
