Non-Slip Bath Coating for Dicklant homes
We travel to Dicklant for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
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 coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Non-slip bath coating in Dicklant, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

What affects the price in Dicklant
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you’re in Dicklant and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Dicklant: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Dicklant
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
