About our non-slip bath coating in Howbeck
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, across resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Howbeck
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What else we do in Howbeck
What affects the price in Howbeck
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CA7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Howbeck
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- 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 before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
