Non-slip bath coating in Holwell without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most often call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
