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 homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, in acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When a repair isn’t the answer

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Thornton
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
