Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ticknall
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, in enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Ticknall questions
Are there extra charges for Ticknall?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Ticknall. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Ticknall
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

What affects the price in Ticknall
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Ticknall
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs 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 there are no surprises on the day.
