About our non-slip bath coating in Greatworth
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repairing versus replacing in Greatworth
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in Greatworth
There’s no area surcharge for Greatworth. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- 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’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Other services in Greatworth
Greatworth: your questions answered
Do you work in Greatworth?
We do. Technicians travel to Greatworth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Greatworth?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Greatworth is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Greatworth?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
