Non-Slip Bath Coating in Fir Tree
Non-slip bath coating across Fir Tree and nearby, generally in one visit.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Non-slip bath coating in Fir Tree without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fir Tree
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fir Tree use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, 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
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Fir Tree

What affects the price in Fir Tree
We charge the same across the UK, including Fir Tree. What changes the price is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
