Non-slip bath & shower coating in Earsham, Suffolk
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Earsham, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
About our non-slip bath coating in Earsham
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We charge the same across the UK, including Earsham. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
