Non-Slip Bath Coating for Mankinholes homes
Our repair technicians come to Mankinholes 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
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Non-slip bath coating in Mankinholes without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Questions from Mankinholes
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
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.
Landlord and trade work in Mankinholes
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
Repairing versus replacing in Mankinholes
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- No need to remove anything
- Same prices wherever you are
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What affects the price in Mankinholes
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
