- 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.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Chilton Lane
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Chilton Lane
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Chilton Lane: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Chilton Lane. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
