Non-slip bath coating in Chipstable without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, in shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Chipstable?

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Chipstable

We charge the same across the UK, including Chipstable. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Chipstable

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

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.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
