Non-slip bath coating at your home in Lane End
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When to call us in Lane End
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

What else we do in Lane End
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Lane End
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover the whole of Telford and Wrekin?
We work UK-wide, so Lane End is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Repair or replace in Lane End?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lane End. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
