How we handle non-slip bath coating in Welch Whittle
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can normally put it right, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Welch Whittle
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
When to call us in Welch Whittle
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Before you book anyone
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?
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. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
