How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Portsea
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in enamelled baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Portsea
Do you cover the entire of Portsmouth?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What affects the price in Portsea
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Repair or replace in Portsea?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
