Non-slip bath coating at your home in Batford
It suits 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’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Batford and across Hertfordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
What we’re called out for in Batford
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Look out for these signs:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
