How we handle non-slip bath coating in Kilnsey
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Kilnsey 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.

Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When to call us in Kilnsey
Smooth surfaces are 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.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to care for the finish
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix
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
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
