Non-Slip Bath Coating in Poynings
We travel to Poynings for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Non-slip bath coating in Poynings, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common problems we fix in Poynings
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Poynings
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
