Non-slip bath coating in Bucklerheads without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Bucklerheads
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
