About our non-slip bath coating in West Town
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. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help, on resurfaced baths, shower trays and enamelled baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

- Outdoor surfaces
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
If you manage property in West Town, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in West Town
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Questions to ask before booking

- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Prices and what affects them
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in West Town and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
