Non-slip bath coating in Burnt Heath, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Burnt Heath 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.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Why repair rather than replace?

The alternatives are 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. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Burnt Heath

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What non-slip bath coating costs

Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
