Non-slip bath & shower coating in East Stour, Dorset
Our repair technicians come to East Stour for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

Non-slip bath coating at your home in East Stour
The coating is clear and textured, 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. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in East Stour
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in East Stour
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for East Stour. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- 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
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in East Stour
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are there extra charges for East Stour?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Stour as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in East Stour
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Comparing quotes
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
- What preparation is included
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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.
