- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Non-slip bath coating in Penfilia without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, on enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
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 few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit

- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Questions from Penfilia
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Penfilia is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Repair or replace in Penfilia?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Penfilia
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
