About our non-slip bath coating in Smelthouses
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different 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.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Prices and what affects them
We do not charge extra for travel to Smelthouses. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Smelthouses
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Smelthouses?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Smelthouses
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
