Non-slip bath coating in Lately Common, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Lately Common
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lately Common
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lately Common as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
