Non-Slip Bath Coating for Hilcott homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays at your home in Hilcott, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Non-slip bath coating in Hilcott, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

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 coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hilcott. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
