About our non-slip bath coating in Whitwell
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We regularly repair enamelled baths, resurfaced baths and shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Rutland. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Whitwell
Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Repairing versus replacing in Whitwell
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. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whitwell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
