How we handle non-slip bath coating in Thorpe
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. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Thorpe is about 10 miles north-east of Cheadle, in Derbyshire. Jobs in Thorpe are booked in like any other job: a fixed quote from pictures, and a technician at your door on the day. Our repair technicians cover all 532 towns and villages across Derbyshire, from the larger towns to small villages. We work right across the region, from Thorpe to Manchester (35 miles away).

Local landmarks in Thorpe
Around Thorpe, we work in homes near Church of St Leonard and Fitzherbert CofE (Aided) Primary School and the streets around them. Well-known places in the area include St Oswalds Hospital (2.8 miles south-east) and Ashbourne Rural District (2.8 miles south-east). Open spaces near Thorpe include Castern Wood and Thorpe Cloud.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Prices and what affects them
There is no charge for travel to Thorpe. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas

- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Common questions in Thorpe
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Thorpe?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Thorpe and the rest of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
