Non-Slip Bath Coating for Sproughton homes
We travel to Sproughton for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

About our non-slip bath coating in Sproughton
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Sproughton
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Prices and what affects them
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
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 coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Honest limits
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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
What we are called out for in Sproughton
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.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
