About our non-slip bath coating in Motcombe
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Motcombe
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Motcombe is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Motcombe?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SP7 postcode.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you work in Motcombe?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Motcombe from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What else we do in Motcombe
Repair or replace in Motcombe?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’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
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Landlord and trade work in Motcombe
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
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.
What affects the price in Motcombe
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Motcombe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Common problems we fix in Motcombe
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Clients generally contact us about:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
