Non-slip bath coating at your home in Plantation
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across enamelled baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Plantation?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your G51 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Plantation: your questions answered
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different 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 you book.
