How we handle non-slip bath coating in Baffins
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Baffins and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.
Questions from Baffins
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Repairing versus replacing in Baffins
The alternatives are 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. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Generally one visit, start to finish

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
