About our non-slip bath coating in Alvechurch
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alvechurch as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we are called out for in Alvechurch
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Common questions in Alvechurch
Do you cover Alvechurch?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Alvechurch for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What affects the price in Alvechurch
We charge the same across the UK, including Alvechurch. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Alvechurch, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
