Non-slip bath coating at your home in Ball Hill
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Ball Hill
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Ball Hill included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Ball Hill?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RG20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Ball Hill?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
