Non-slip bath coating at your home in Meriden
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The most common problems we are called about are:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Questions from Meriden
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Meriden is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work in Meriden?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Meriden. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
