Non-Slip Bath Coating for Ickleford homes
Non-slip bath coating in and around Ickleford: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
About our non-slip bath coating in Ickleford
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Ickleford questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Ickleford.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Common problems we fix in Ickleford
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Common reasons people in Ickleford contact us are:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
