How we handle non-slip bath coating in Blackwater
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?
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 adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Blackwater
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Blackwater?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Blackwater and the rest of Dorset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What affects the price in Blackwater
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, 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 won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
