Non-Slip Bath Coating for Potarch homes
Non-slip bath coating in and around Potarch: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Non-slip bath coating in Potarch without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and enamelled baths, and common reasons people get in touch are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Potarch as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Potarch
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
When to call us in Potarch
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Common questions in Potarch
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Potarch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
