Non-Slip Bath Coating in Longsdon

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Longsdon
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Longsdon and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Longsdon questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you work in Longsdon?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Longsdon from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Longsdon
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
