Non-slip bath coating in Stick Hill without replacing anything
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Stick Hill
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Stick Hill included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we price non-slip bath coating
Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Stick Hill?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Aftercare advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
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 adds grip to the bath you have. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
