Non-slip bath & shower coating in Longley, Calderdale
Non-slip bath coating across Longley and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

- Safety for older or less mobile people
How we price non-slip bath coating
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
About our non-slip bath coating in Longley
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on shower trays, resurfaced 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. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Longley?
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 adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Longley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Longley questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Longley?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

What else we do in Longley
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 often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
