How we handle non-slip bath coating in Rickleton
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. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Rickleton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What affects the price in Rickleton
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
