About our non-slip bath coating in Smeaton
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. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When to call us in Smeaton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- A fixed quote before you book

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
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Smeaton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Smeaton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Smeaton
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Smeaton?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Are there extra charges for Smeaton?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
