Non-slip bath coating at your home in Kendleshire
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in South Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kendleshire questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover Kendleshire?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kendleshire for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, 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 will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
