Non-slip bath & shower coating in Howes, Cambridgeshire
We travel to Howes for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CB3 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Howes
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
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 will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
FAQs for Howes
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you work in Howes?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Howes. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Howes?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Howes, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When to call us in Howes
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Common reasons people in Howes contact us are:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
