How we handle non-slip bath coating in Team Colliery
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. If you’re dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Team Colliery
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

What else we do in Team Colliery
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach

Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
