Non-slip bath & shower coating in Melton, Suffolk
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays at your home in Melton, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

About our non-slip bath coating in Melton
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Melton: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Melton and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Melton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Melton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Common problems we fix in Melton
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before booking

- How soon you can use it again
