Non-slip bath & shower coating in Islip, Northamptonshire
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Islip and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will 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.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Non-slip bath coating in Islip without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Islip
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
If you’re in Islip and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Islip questions
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Islip?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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 us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Islip?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
