How we handle non-slip bath coating in Hoghton Bottoms
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Hoghton Bottoms questions
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you work in Hoghton Bottoms?
We do. Technicians travel to Hoghton Bottoms from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hoghton Bottoms
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
What we’re called out for in Hoghton Bottoms
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
