Non-slip bath coating in Sea View without replacing anything
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and enamelled baths, and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sea View as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. 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. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Common problems we fix in Sea View
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Questions from Sea View
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you come to Sea View?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Sea View for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Sea View?
Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Landlord and trade work in Sea View
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Poole and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Sea View, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A 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.

How we price non-slip bath coating
There’s no charge for travel to Sea View. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
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 to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire 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.
