Non-Slip Bath Coating in Upper Cotton
Our technicians come to Upper Cotton for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Upper Cotton
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair enamelled baths, acrylic baths 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.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Upper Cotton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we’re called out for in Upper Cotton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. 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
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
