- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.

Advice
About our non-slip bath coating in Low Etherley
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can usually put it right, on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

FAQs for Low Etherley
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Low Etherley?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
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.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
