- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Non-slip bath coating in Rimpton, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair enamelled baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Rimpton: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Rimpton?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairing versus replacing in Rimpton
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rimpton
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What non-slip bath coating costs
There’s no charge for travel to Rimpton. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
