Non-slip bath & shower coating in Castle Hill, Kent
We travel to Castle Hill for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Castle Hill
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, we can normally put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Castle Hill
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Castle Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
