Non-slip bath coating in Upperton without replacing anything

The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Upperton as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays
  • Enamelled baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

When to call us in Upperton

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Customers typically contact us about:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Worn-out textured areas

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to care for the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Upperton questions

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you cover Upperton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Upperton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Upperton and the rest of North Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

For a price in Upperton, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Upperton

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
