How we handle non-slip bath coating in Pockthorpe
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Pockthorpe as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Pockthorpe
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 treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare

Advice
How we price non-slip bath coating
We do not charge extra for travel to Pockthorpe. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
FAQs for Pockthorpe
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pockthorpe
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pockthorpe as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Pockthorpe
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
