Non-Slip Bath Coating for Dowles homes
Non-slip bath coating in and around Dowles: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.

- Safety for older or less mobile people
Non-slip bath coating in Dowles, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Dowles: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover Dowles?
We do. Technicians travel to Dowles from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When to call us in Dowles
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What affects the price in Dowles
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dowles. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Dowles, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
