Non-Slip Bath Coating for Smithies homes
Our repair technicians come to Smithies for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
About our non-slip bath coating in Smithies
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Smithies
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What affects the price in Smithies
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us

Landlords, agents and businesses in Smithies
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Barnsley and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
