Non-slip bath & shower coating in River, Kent
Non-slip bath coating in River without the cost of replacing. Send us photos for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before booking
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
Take a look at our pricing.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in River
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. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common problems we fix in River
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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas

How we price non-slip bath coating
There is no charge for travel to River. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in River, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can

Landlord and trade work in River
