Non-slip bath coating in Rooks Nest without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Rooks Nest: your questions answered
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work in Rooks Nest?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Rooks Nest. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Rooks Nest
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Take a look at our pricing.
What non-slip bath coating costs
You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Rooks Nest. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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 price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
