Non-slip bath coating in Carlton without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

When we would advise against a repair

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Carlton
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Carlton?
We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your IP17 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
What non-slip bath coating costs
There is no area surcharge for Carlton. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Carlton, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
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 that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Carlton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Common problems we fix in Carlton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Look out for these signs:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, 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.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Carlton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
