Non-slip bath coating in Winterbourne Steepleton, done in place
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and worn-out textured areas.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Winterbourne Steepleton
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
Repair or replace in Winterbourne Steepleton?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
