Non-slip bath coating in Bow without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, enamelled baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Bow
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
People generally call us after spotting one of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Landlord and trade work in Bow
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TQ9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Bow
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Bow is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Should you replace it?
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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
