Non-slip bath coating in Babcary, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Babcary. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Babcary?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, 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
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
