Non-Slip Bath Coating for Freefolk homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Freefolk, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Freefolk
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, across shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Freefolk
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Freefolk?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
