Non-Slip Bath Coating for Painters Ash homes
Non-slip bath coating across Painters Ash and nearby, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Painters Ash
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally 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.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Painters Ash use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
