What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ordsall. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For a price in Ordsall, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
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 liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ordsall as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Ordsall: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Greater Manchester.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Ordsall?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Repairing versus replacing in Ordsall
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
