About our non-slip bath coating in Frocester
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 safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Frocester
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you cover Frocester?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Frocester and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Frocester
We charge the same across the UK, including Frocester. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
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 if a repair is the right fix.
