Non-slip bath coating in Hillside without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s 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.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Questions from Hillside
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are there extra charges for Hillside?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Hillside?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
