Non-slip bath & shower coating in Heath and Reach, Central Bedfordshire
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Heath and Reach, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Worn-out textured areas

Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Heath and Reach. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, 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
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Heath and Reach
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in shower trays, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Heath and Reach questions
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Heath and Reach?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Work done at your home or business
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
