Non-slip bath coating at your home in Kettlestone
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Kettlestone questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Do you work in Kettlestone?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Kettlestone. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Kettlestone. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Common problems we fix in Kettlestone
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match

- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
