Non-slip bath coating in Kensworth without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

How we price non-slip bath coating
You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Kensworth
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Kensworth
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you cover the whole of Central Bedfordshire?
Across the UK, so Kensworth is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
