How we handle non-slip bath coating in Knowle
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. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We charge the same across the UK, including Knowle. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
For a price in Knowle, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Covering Knowle
Knowle is about 13 miles west of Stourport-on-Severn, in Shropshire. Our work suits any type of property, old or new, large or small, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. Knowle is one of 433 places in Shropshire where we work. We work right across the region, from Knowle to Birmingham (30 miles away).
All of SY8 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. From Tenbury Road and Lion Lane or anywhere nearby, we can come to you. Other places close to Knowle include Cleehill (1 mile north), Hints (1 mile north-east), Spurtree (3 miles south), Crumpsbrook (3 miles north-east) and Tenbury Wells (4 miles south). Further out, we also cover Bridgnorth (14 miles north-east), Ludlow (5 miles west), Church Stretton (15 miles north-west), Craven Arms (12 miles north-west), Cleobury Mortimer (5 miles east) and Highley (11 miles north-east).

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Knowle: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover Knowle?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Knowle. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What else we do in Knowle
What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
