How we handle non-slip bath coating in Merritown
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. We regularly repair enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 you book.
What we work on
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works
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 few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Merritown
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Merritown. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Common questions in Merritown
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
