About our non-slip bath coating in Leachkin
The coating is clear and textured, 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. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Leachkin?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Leachkin, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What affects the price in Leachkin
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Leachkin. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Common questions in Leachkin
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Leachkin?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your IV3 postcode.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are there extra charges for Leachkin?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Other services in Leachkin
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
