Non-slip bath coating in Gabber without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can usually put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Gabber
Do you come to Gabber?
We do. We send a technician to Gabber for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Gabber?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Repairing versus replacing in Gabber
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A fixed quote before booking

What affects the price in Gabber
There is no charge for travel to Gabber. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
Most clients in Gabber get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gabber use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When to call us in Gabber
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What prep work is covered
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
