Non-Slip Bath Coating in Melcombe Bingham
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays in Melcombe Bingham, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Melcombe Bingham
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Melcombe Bingham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we are called out for in Melcombe Bingham
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
