Non-slip bath & shower coating in Wayford, Somerset
Our repair technicians come to Wayford for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Safety for older or less mobile people

What affects the price in Wayford
You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wayford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Non-slip bath coating in Wayford without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Typical jobs include safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas, across wet room floors (ask us), shower trays and acrylic baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Questions from Wayford
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What areas do you cover?
All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Somerset.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

- Safety for older or less mobile people

- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Wayford?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
