Non-Slip Bath Coating in Tripwell
Our technicians come to Tripwell for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Non-slip bath coating in Tripwell, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tripwell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Do you need non-slip bath coating in Tripwell?
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet 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 picture:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before you book

- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who will actually do the work
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Shetland Islands and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What happens on the day
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 are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What non-slip bath coating costs
There’s no charge for travel to Tripwell. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You do not 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.
