Non-slip bath coating at your home in Tempsford
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and acrylic baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tempsford and across Central Bedfordshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
