Non-slip bath & shower coating in The Common, Essex
Non-slip bath coating in The Common without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in The Common
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and shower trays.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
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 there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
If you are in The Common and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Questions from The Common
Which areas do you work in?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Common problems we fix in The Common
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One price list for the entire UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Honest limits
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
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
