How we handle non-slip bath coating in Holton
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. We regularly repair acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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 non-slip bath coating costs
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BA9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
