Non-slip bath coating in Bowesfield, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price non-slip bath coating
There is no area surcharge for Bowesfield. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
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 you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Bowesfield and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

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)

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
