Non-Slip Bath Coating for Lifford homes
Non-slip bath coating for Lifford, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Lifford
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

FAQs for Lifford
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you work in Lifford?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lifford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lifford as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
When to call us in Lifford
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What affects the price in Lifford
There’s no charge for travel to Lifford. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lifford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
Repair or replace in Lifford?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
