Non-slip bath & shower coating in Lower Stondon, Central Bedfordshire
Our technicians come to Lower Stondon for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Non-slip bath coating in Lower Stondon, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Lower Stondon
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Central Bedfordshire.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What we’re called out for in Lower Stondon
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
