Non-slip bath coating at your home in Hickling
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We charge the same across the UK, including Hickling. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Hickling, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No need to remove anything
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
See our prices page.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Hickling
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
