About our non-slip bath coating in St Madoes
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and shower trays, and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, 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.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in St Madoes?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How to look after the finish
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
What non-slip bath coating costs
There’s no charge for travel to St Madoes. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Questions from St Madoes
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in St Madoes?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
