About our non-slip bath coating in Longley
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. We’re often asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, in shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Longley and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Longley
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths

Repair or replace in Longley?
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 non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
