About our non-slip bath coating in Tipner
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can generally put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What non-slip bath coating costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Tipner, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Questions from Tipner
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Tipner?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Landlord and trade work in Tipner
For anyone letting property in or around Tipner, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Portsmouth and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Same prices wherever you are

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Tipner
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
