Non-slip bath coating at your home in Donisthorpe
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Donisthorpe
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Donisthorpe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
