Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bovinger
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Bovinger and across Essex. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Bovinger. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Bovinger, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Bovinger questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
We work UK-wide, so Bovinger is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bovinger
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Common problems we fix in Bovinger
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who turns up on the day
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bovinger. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
