Non-slip bath coating in Willingham by Stow, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Common problems we fix in Willingham by Stow
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

What non-slip bath coating costs
We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Willingham by Stow use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
