Non-slip bath coating in Portinscale without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What non-slip bath coating costs
There’s no area surcharge for Portinscale. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Portinscale
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
