- 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’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
Non-slip bath coating in Barrack Hill without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
What non-slip bath coating costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Barrack Hill
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Barrack Hill?
We do. We send a technician to Barrack Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Barrack Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
