Non-slip bath & shower coating in Up Holland, Lancashire
Non-slip bath coating in and around Up Holland: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Up Holland
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Up Holland
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common problems we fix in Up Holland
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What happens on the day
Once we’re 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 few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Questions from Up Holland
Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Up Holland. Prices do not change with location.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Repairing versus replacing in Up Holland
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Up Holland. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
