How we handle non-slip bath coating in Printstile
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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.

What else we do in Printstile
What non-slip bath coating costs
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What we are called out for in Printstile
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Printstile
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Printstile?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TN3 postcode.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When a repair is not the answer
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
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths

Landlord and trade work in Printstile
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can

Why repair rather than replace?
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 few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
