About our non-slip bath coating in Golden Valley
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. We’re frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Golden Valley?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price non-slip bath coating
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GL51 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
