About our non-slip bath coating in Marsh
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Typical jobs include bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Marsh
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marsh
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marsh use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
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.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Marsh
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
What non-slip bath coating costs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
