Non-slip bath coating at your home in Lynstone
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Lynstone, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lynstone
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
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.
What we are called out for in Lynstone
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
