Non-slip bath coating in Abson without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One price list for the whole UK

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abson

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common problems we fix in Abson

Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Our hiring checklist

What non-slip bath coating costs

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Abson. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Most customers in Abson get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Questions from Abson

What does non-slip bath coating cost?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Are there extra charges for Abson?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We remove the masking for a neat edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
