About our non-slip bath coating in Belle Vue
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
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 normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Questions from Belle Vue
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
Most customers in Belle Vue get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
Repairing versus replacing in Belle Vue
Instead, you could go for 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Belle Vue. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Landlord and trade work in Belle Vue
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common problems we fix in Belle Vue
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
