About our non-slip bath coating in Dawpool
It suits 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. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
If you’re in Dawpool and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dawpool use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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 adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Dawpool. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Common questions in Dawpool
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Dawpool?
Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your CH48 postcode.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
