About our non-slip bath coating in Long Buckby Wharf
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Buckby Wharf
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are 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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
