- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Rift House
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. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Rift House
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you cover the entire of Hartlepool?
Everywhere in the UK, Rift House included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Repair or replace in Rift House?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
