How we price non-slip bath coating
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Hilston
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hilston as everywhere else we work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Hilston
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you are 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
