Non-slip bath coating in Fence Houses without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Fence Houses
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repairing versus replacing in Fence Houses
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip 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 doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair
