Non-slip bath coating in Thornton, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Thornton. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Thornton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When to call us in Thornton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Before you book anyone

- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

For landlords and businesses
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.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Thornton: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Repair or replace in Thornton?
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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
