Non-slip bath coating in Marston Moretaine without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath or shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Marston Moretaine
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
FAQs for Marston Moretaine
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Marston Moretaine?
Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your MK43 postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Will it make 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?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Marston Moretaine.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Marston Moretaine. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
