Non-slip bath coating at your home in Killerby
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on shower trays, acrylic baths and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Killerby and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When to call us in Killerby
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Common reasons people in Killerby contact us are:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Killerby: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Killerby?
We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What non-slip bath coating costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
