Non-slip bath & shower coating in Lea, Derbyshire

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Lea
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Common questions in Lea
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Lea included. There is no extra charge for travel.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Lea?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Lea
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
