Non-Slip Bath Coating for Horsehay homes
Non-slip bath coating across Horsehay and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Non-slip bath coating in Horsehay without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Horsehay and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Horsehay: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is my repair covered?

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are you a vetted contractor?

What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What affects the price in Horsehay

- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
You don’t need a survey visit. 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.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
