Non-slip bath coating in Longcause without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
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. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we are called out for in Longcause
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Landlords, agents and businesses in Longcause
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays

- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
What non-slip bath coating costs
There is no charge for travel to Longcause. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Questions from Longcause
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you work in Longcause?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Longcause from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
