Non-slip bath coating at your home in Rodwell
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays

How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Rodwell?

What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
