Non-Slip Bath Coating for Avisford homes
Our technicians come to Avisford for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Avisford
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can typically put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Avisford?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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’re asked about most:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Avisford
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Avisford as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
