Non-slip bath coating in Windermere without replacing anything
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Windermere?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we’re called out for in Windermere
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
- Aftercare advice
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Questions from Windermere
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are there extra charges for Windermere?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover Windermere?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Windermere from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What we cannot put right
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
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
