Non-slip bath coating at your home in New Mills
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
Common problems we fix in New Mills
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

New Mills questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, New Mills included. Travel is included in the price.
Repair or replace in New Mills?
The alternatives are 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
What you get with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work
Take a look at our prices page.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
