Non-slip bath & shower coating in Thornton, Lincolnshire
We travel to Thornton for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Non-slip bath coating in Thornton without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Thornton: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Thornton and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What non-slip bath coating costs
There is no charge for travel to Thornton. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Thornton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip 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 the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
