About our non-slip bath coating in Laverton
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can generally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What else we do in Laverton
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price non-slip bath coating
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
When to call us in Laverton
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your HG4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Laverton
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
