Non-slip bath coating at your home in Potterton
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you’re dealing with bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, we can help.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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.

What affects the price in Potterton
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
