Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ards
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across enamelled baths, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ards use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have.
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing 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
Signs you need non-slip bath coating
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Common questions in Ards
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
