Non-Slip Bath Coating in Ugglebarnby
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Ugglebarnby and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Ugglebarnby
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Ugglebarnby questions
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Ugglebarnby is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
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.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.

- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
