Non-slip bath coating in Barfrestone, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting 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 will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
Barfrestone: your questions answered
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barfrestone as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in Barfrestone
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether they match the colour on site

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
