How we price non-slip bath coating
There is no charge for travel to Clipstone. The price comes down to:

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Clipstone
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, 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.

FAQs for Clipstone
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Do you come to Clipstone?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Clipstone. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for 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. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
