Non-slip bath coating in Fobbing, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Fobbing
There is no charge for travel to Fobbing. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:

Repairing versus replacing in Fobbing
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Fobbing: your questions answered
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
