Non-slip bath & shower coating in Hawkwell, Essex
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Hawkwell, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Hawkwell
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s 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.

Prices and what affects them
You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SS5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Questions from Hawkwell
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Hawkwell is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Essex.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Hawkwell?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hawkwell
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hawkwell as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Usually one visit, start to finish
