Non-slip bath & shower coating in Wilsden, Bradford
Non-slip bath coating across Wilsden and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wilsden
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bradford. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

FAQs for Wilsden
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Wilsden included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you come to Wilsden?
We do. We send a technician to Wilsden for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Repairing versus replacing in Wilsden
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
