About our non-slip bath coating in Marley
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
For a price in Marley, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
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.
