Non-slip bath coating at your home in Westhorpe
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on wet room floors (ask us), enamelled baths and shower trays, and the jobs we see most are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
You’re covered after we leave: 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. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Westhorpe
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us

What non-slip bath coating costs
You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP14 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
