Non-slip bath coating at your home in Salisbury
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repairing versus replacing in Salisbury
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 adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Salisbury. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common reasons people in Salisbury contact us include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What to look for in a quote

- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park

- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Salisbury
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you come to Salisbury?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Salisbury and the rest of Wiltshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How we price non-slip bath coating
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
