About our non-slip bath coating in Boston
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. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Boston and across Lincolnshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Boston and the surrounding area
Boston is in Lincolnshire. We agree a date that works for you, and we will give you an arrival time in advance, so you’re not left waiting in all day. Our repair technicians cover all 732 towns and villages across Lincolnshire, from the larger towns to small villages.
All of PE21, PE20 and PE22 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. You will find streets such as High Street, Pescod Square and Whiting Square, and we cover them all. You will find Boston on the A16 and A17, so it’s easy for us to reach. We also travel to Staniland (1 mile south-west), St Thomas' (1 mile south), Witham (1 mile north-west), Skirbeck Quarter (1 mile south) and Skirbeck (1 mile south-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Spalding (14 miles south-west), Holbeach (12 miles south), Woodhall Spa (15 miles north-west), Pinchbeck (13 miles south-west), Long Sutton (14 miles south-east) and Kirton (3 miles south). As one of the bigger places in Lincolnshire, Boston is somewhere we visit frequently.
Around Boston
We visit homes around Witham Way Country Park, Boston Grammar School and The Golden Lion Public House, among other places. Other local landmarks include Unitarian Church (under half a mile east), Kitwood Boys School (0.8 miles north) and Boston Pioneers Free School Academy (less than half a mile east). There’s a railway station in Boston itself: Boston station. Nearby you’ll also find Frampton Castle (2.9 miles south) and Pilgrim Hospital (1.3 miles north-east). The countryside around Boston includes RSPB Frampton Marsh.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Boston questions
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Do you come to Boston?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Boston and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How we price non-slip bath coating
There is no charge for travel to Boston. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Boston get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
