Non-slip bath & shower coating in Waingroves, Derbyshire
Local non-slip bath coating for Waingroves: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- 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 give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Non-slip bath coating in Waingroves, done in place
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. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you cover Waingroves?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Waingroves from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What your quote should include

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add 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.
Why book with us
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One visit for most repairs

How we price non-slip bath coating
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Waingroves get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
