Non-Slip Bath Coating for Buckminster homes

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Non-slip bath coating in Buckminster without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can usually put it right, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Buckminster and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- 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
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Buckminster. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
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 will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
