About our non-slip bath coating in Upminster
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
We charge the same across the UK, including Upminster. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Upminster, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common problems we fix in Upminster
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
