Non-slip bath coating in Wilton without replacing anything

It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can normally put it right, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and acrylic baths alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Common problems we fix in Wilton

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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, usually overnight.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What non-slip bath coating costs

We charge the same across the UK, including Wilton. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
