About our non-slip bath coating in Castle Eden
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
If you manage property in Castle Eden, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What affects the price in Castle Eden
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Questions from Castle Eden
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
