- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Veldo
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas, across acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we’re called out for in Veldo
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Common questions in Veldo
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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 will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are 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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your HR1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
