If you manage property in Moorhouse, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
About our non-slip bath coating in Moorhouse
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Moorhouse
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Moorhouse.
Do you cover Moorhouse?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Moorhouse and the rest of Cumbria. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
