Non-Slip Bath Coating for Upper Cumberworth homes
Our repair technicians come to Upper Cumberworth for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Upper Cumberworth
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Cumberworth
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Upper Cumberworth?

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process
From the moment we arrive, 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, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
