Non-slip bath coating in Lobley Hill without replacing anything
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. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common problems we fix in Lobley Hill

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lobley Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Lobley Hill
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
