Non-slip bath coating in Boundary, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Boundary?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Boundary. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Boundary
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Boundary?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Boundary. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Boundary. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Boundary get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
