Non-slip bath coating in Racecourse, done in place
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. Typical jobs include worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What affects the price in Racecourse
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Racecourse
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you come to Racecourse?
We do. We send a technician to Racecourse for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath or shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
