Non-slip bath coating in Old Town without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Old Town. 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
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Repair or replace in Old Town?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Old Town customers choose us

- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Common problems we fix in Old Town
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
