Non-slip bath coating in Rock-a-Nore, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and resurfaced 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. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlord and trade work in Rock-a-Nore
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
If you manage property in Rock-a-Nore, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths

What non-slip bath coating costs
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Rock-a-Nore, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairing versus replacing in Rock-a-Nore
The alternatives are 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. We don’t 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.
