How we handle non-slip bath coating in Widnes
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re frequently asked to fix worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, in resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Widnes?
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.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

What else we do in Widnes
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Widnes
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 adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- No extra charge for your area
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
