About our non-slip bath coating in Shelvin
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are often asked to fix worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Shelvin, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Shelvin
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you work in Shelvin?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Shelvin for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Repair or replace in Shelvin?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
