Non-Slip Bath Coating in Bowd
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Bowd and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bowd
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bowd and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Bowd?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are 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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- 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, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
