Non-slip bath coating at your home in Catchgate
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional 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, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are 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. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Questions from Catchgate
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Catchgate included. There is no extra charge for travel.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
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.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Catchgate

Common reasons people in Catchgate contact us include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
