Non-slip bath coating in Tonge, done in place
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tonge
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
For anyone letting property in or around Tonge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
What non-slip bath coating costs
Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
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 over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
