Non-slip bath & shower coating in Whittlesford, Cambridgeshire
Non-slip bath coating across Whittlesford and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Non-slip bath coating in Whittlesford without replacing anything
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. Common call-outs are for resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, across acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Whittlesford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Common questions in Whittlesford
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

How it works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
