Non-slip bath coating in Upper End without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Upper End and across Derbyshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Upper End
We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Upper End. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SK17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repairing versus replacing in Upper End
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What else we do in Upper End
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Upper End
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What to look for in a quote

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Upper End questions
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Derbyshire.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
