Non-slip bath coating in Skimpot without replacing anything
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’re often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, across acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Skimpot. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What else we do in Skimpot
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 typically cheaper.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Skimpot?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
