Non-Slip Bath Coating for Wainhouse Corner homes
We travel to Wainhouse Corner for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Worn-out textured areas

- Safety for older or less mobile people

Non-slip bath coating in Wainhouse Corner, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Common call-outs are for worn-out textured areas and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and enamelled baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How the visit works

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Wainhouse Corner and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace in Wainhouse Corner?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What a repair can’t fix

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
