Non-slip bath coating in Ilchester, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Ilchester
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- 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.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Repairing versus replacing in Ilchester
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ilchester. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- Same prices wherever you are
