Non-slip bath coating at your home in Pipsden
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Pipsden
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Pipsden
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Comparing quotes
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, 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 will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
We don’t add 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.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace in Pipsden?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
