How we handle non-slip bath coating in Merry Hill
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Landlord and trade work in Merry Hill
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths

Repair or replace in Merry Hill?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally 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
What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WV3 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Merry Hill
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Merry Hill?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
