DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Non-slip bath coating in Shipmeadow without replacing anything
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We work on enamelled baths, acrylic baths and shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we’re called out for in Shipmeadow
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

The process
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Shipmeadow
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What affects the price in Shipmeadow
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR34 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
