Non-slip bath coating in Whitchurch, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We’re often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, on enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Whitchurch and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What else we do in Whitchurch
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Whitchurch, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When to call us in Whitchurch
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whitchurch
For anyone letting property in or around Whitchurch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whitchurch as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repair or replace in Whitchurch?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Whitchurch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
