Non-slip bath & shower coating in Ugthorpe, North Yorkshire
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Ugthorpe, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ugthorpe
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ugthorpe as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

- Outdoor surfaces

Ugthorpe: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across North Yorkshire.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Ugthorpe?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What non-slip bath coating costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Ugthorpe. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Repairing versus replacing in Ugthorpe
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- A fixed quote before booking
- No extra charge for your area
