Non-slip bath coating in Highstead without replacing anything
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. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair cannot fix

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Highstead
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Highstead questions
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
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 I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
