Non-Slip Bath Coating for Old Basford homes
Non-slip bath coating across Old Basford and nearby, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Non-slip bath coating in Old Basford without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and common reasons people contact us are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Old Basford get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Old Basford questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath or shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are there extra charges for Old Basford?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Old Basford. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Fixed prices from your photos

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
