How we handle non-slip bath coating in Halnaker
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Halnaker
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Halnaker and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
