About our non-slip bath coating in Upgate Street
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Upgate Street get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Upgate Street
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Upgate Street and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Upgate Street
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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Repair or replace in Upgate Street?
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 coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
