Non-slip bath coating in Thickwood, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and resurfaced baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Thickwood questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you come to Thickwood?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Thickwood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Thickwood
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Get a quote
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
