Non-slip bath & shower coating in Meltonby, East Riding of Yorkshire
Our technicians come to Meltonby for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Non-slip bath coating in Meltonby without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Meltonby. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Meltonby and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common problems we fix in Meltonby
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- How long it needs to cure

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repair or replace in Meltonby?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re 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 fails, we can still put it right.
Meltonby questions

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
