- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Non-slip bath coating in Carlton, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, we can normally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
What non-slip bath coating costs
There’s no charge for travel to Carlton. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Carlton
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
What we’re called out for in Carlton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Before booking anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
Should you replace it?
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 non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
