Non-Slip Bath Coating in Shopwyke
Local non-slip bath coating for Shopwyke: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Non-slip bath coating in Shopwyke without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people, on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and resurfaced baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Shopwyke and across West Sussex. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Shopwyke
Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common problems we fix in Shopwyke
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re 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.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
Places near Shopwyke
What else we do in Shopwyke
Landlords, agents and businesses in Shopwyke
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
