Non-Slip Bath Coating for Wicklane homes
Clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays for homes and businesses in Wicklane and across Bath and North East Somerset. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, typically overnight.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wicklane
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We work on wet room floors (ask us), resurfaced baths and enamelled baths, and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Wicklane, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Wicklane
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Wicklane?
We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Wicklane?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wicklane for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
