About our non-slip bath coating in Old Wives Lees
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Old Wives Lees
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

What non-slip bath coating costs
There’s no charge for travel to Old Wives Lees. The price depends on:
- The material

Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
