Non-Slip Bath Coating in Upwood

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
About our non-slip bath coating in Upwood
The coating is clear and textured, 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. Our repair technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Upwood
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
