Non-slip bath coating across Fordington and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are 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. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Non-slip bath coating in Fordington without replacing anything
It’s popular with 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. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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 lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How we price non-slip bath coating
There is no charge for travel to Fordington. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fordington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
