About our non-slip bath coating in Fordwich
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, in wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Fordwich
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
When a repair isn’t the answer
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
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

How we price non-slip bath coating
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
