How it works
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 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
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Get a quote
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 quote, not an estimate.
Advice
About our non-slip bath coating in Tuxford
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We are frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, across acrylic baths, shower trays and enamelled baths.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
Repair or replace in Tuxford?
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 treats your existing bath or tray. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath or shower tray, we can price the job.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Tuxford
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NG22 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you work in Tuxford?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Tuxford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
