Non-slip bath coating at your home in Laughterton
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
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.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Other services in Laughterton
Landlords, agents and businesses in Laughterton
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Laughterton questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Laughterton?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you work in Laughterton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Laughterton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

- 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.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Laughterton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Laughterton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
