Non-slip bath & shower coating in Franche, Worcestershire
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Franche, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
About our non-slip bath coating in Franche
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, across enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Questions to ask before you book

- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price covers travel
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically 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.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Questions from Franche
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you work in Franche?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Franche and the rest of Worcestershire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover the whole of Worcestershire?
All of Worcestershire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, 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
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Repair or replace in Franche?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a 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. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
