Non-slip bath & shower coating in Melkinthorpe, Cumbria
Our repair technicians come to Melkinthorpe for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Non-slip bath coating in Melkinthorpe, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Melkinthorpe and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Melkinthorpe?
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.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What else we do in Melkinthorpe
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace in Melkinthorpe?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
