Non-slip bath coating in Romsley, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and acrylic baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
We charge the same across the UK, including Romsley. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For a price in Romsley, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Romsley
For anyone letting property in or around Romsley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Romsley questions
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Romsley?
Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
