About our non-slip bath coating in Farley
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 bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we’re called out for in Farley
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Look out for any of the following:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What else we do in Farley
What non-slip bath coating costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Farley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
