How we handle non-slip bath coating in Great Fossend
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Common questions in Great Fossend
Do you work in Great Fossend?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Great Fossend. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Great Fossend?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
