About our non-slip bath coating in Sandonbank
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found 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.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Sandonbank
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Common questions in Sandonbank
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it messy?

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?
We work UK-wide, so Sandonbank is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
