Non-slip bath & shower coating in Farnborough, Greater London

Non-slip bath coating in Farnborough, done in place
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. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Farnborough
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When to call us in Farnborough
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- 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
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
Farnborough questions
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Farnborough?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you come to Farnborough?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Farnborough for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
Related advice
How we price non-slip bath coating
We charge the same across the UK, including Farnborough. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t 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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
