Non-slip bath coating across Somerley and nearby, normally in one visit.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PO20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
About our non-slip bath coating in Somerley
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Somerley
Do you come to Somerley?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Somerley and the rest of West Sussex. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Somerley?
We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO20 postcode.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?
We work UK-wide, so Somerley is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Somerley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

Landlords, agents and businesses in Somerley
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Somerley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
