Non-Slip Bath Coating for Bare homes
We travel to Bare for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Non-slip bath coating in Bare without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, across shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we are called out for in Bare
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Repairing versus replacing in Bare
The alternatives are 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, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bare. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Questions from Bare
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you cover Bare?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bare for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
