About our non-slip bath coating in Milborne Wick
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Milborne Wick questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- 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’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Milborne Wick?
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.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Milborne Wick
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match

- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Milborne Wick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Milborne Wick use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
