Non-Slip Bath Coating in Newtown Unthank
We travel to Newtown Unthank for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
About our non-slip bath coating in Newtown Unthank
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, in enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths.
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. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Newtown Unthank: your questions answered
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
