Non-slip bath & shower coating in West End, Wiltshire
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in West End and the surrounding area, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
How we handle non-slip bath coating in West End
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in West End

What affects the price in West End
There is no area surcharge for West End. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in West End, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in West End

Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions from West End
Do you come to West End?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to West End for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
