How we handle non-slip bath coating in South Moor
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Moor
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for South Moor. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for South Moor. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
South Moor questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover South Moor?
We do. We send a technician to South Moor for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
When to call us in South Moor
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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What to look for in a quote

- When it can be used again
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
