Non-slip bath & shower coating in Callow, Herefordshire
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Callow and the surrounding area, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Non-slip bath coating in Callow, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Callow
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Callow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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 adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

FAQs for Callow
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
