Non-slip bath coating in Gillingham, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
Most customers in Gillingham get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace in Gillingham?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Gillingham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gillingham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
