About our non-slip bath coating in Charles
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Charles, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When to call us in Charles
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before you book.

Charles: your questions answered

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Charles?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX32 postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you accredited?
