Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wallend
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Medway. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Wallend
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you cover the entire of Medway?
All of Medway, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What else we do in Wallend
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wallend
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wallend as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Do you need non-slip bath coating in Wallend?
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People normally call us after spotting one of these:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
There’s 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
