Non-slip bath & shower coating in Ilsington, Dorset

Non-slip bath coating in Ilsington, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Ilsington
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Ilsington?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are there extra charges for Ilsington?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we are called out for in Ilsington
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Ilsington
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths

How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Ilsington
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- A fixed quote before booking
- No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
