Non-slip bath coating in Sharpway Gate without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, across resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are 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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What affects the price in Sharpway Gate
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most clients in Sharpway Gate get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Questions from Sharpway Gate
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Sharpway Gate included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
