Non-slip bath coating in Trispen, done in place

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Trispen

How we price non-slip bath coating

There is no charge for travel to Trispen. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. We mask out the area to be treated.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Trispen

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?

Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

How do I clean it?

Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
