The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price

Advice
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Keir Mill
It’s popular with 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 are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Keir Mill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Keir Mill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
