About our non-slip bath coating in Porthilly
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. We’re frequently asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and enamelled baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Porthilly clients choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Most jobs done in one visit

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
Common questions in Porthilly
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
