Non-slip bath coating in East Compton, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When to call us in East Compton
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Why repair rather than replace?
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 adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

How we price non-slip bath coating
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for East Compton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
