Non-slip bath coating at your home in Thongsbridge
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can generally put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Thongsbridge?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price

Prices and what affects them
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your HD9 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
What your quote should include

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
