About our non-slip bath coating in Stoke Gifford
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. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- 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, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Common problems we fix in Stoke Gifford
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What non-slip bath coating costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Stoke Gifford. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Stoke Gifford

Do I need to be at home?

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
