Non-slip bath coating in Wheatley Hill without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you’re dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Wheatley Hill as everywhere else we work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Wheatley Hill questions
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

We do. We send a technician to Wheatley Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How we price non-slip bath coating
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wheatley Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wheatley Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Wheatley Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
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 normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not 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.
