Non-slip bath & shower coating in Summerfield, Birmingham
Our technicians come to Summerfield for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Non-slip bath coating in Summerfield, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can help.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Summerfield as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we’re called out for in Summerfield
Smooth surfaces are 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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

Summerfield: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Summerfield?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Summerfield. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
