Non-Slip Bath Coating for Humber homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Humber, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Humber as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
About our non-slip bath coating in Humber
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Humber questions

Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Humber from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Advice
When to call us in Humber
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Humber
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
