Non-slip bath coating in Harnham without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Harnham
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Landlord and trade work in Harnham
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Harnham
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SP2 postcode.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
