About our non-slip bath coating in Drakeholes
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Drakeholes?
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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Drakeholes. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlord and trade work in Drakeholes
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Drakeholes
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Are there extra charges for Drakeholes?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Drakeholes, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Drakeholes?
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
