Non-slip bath coating at your home in Wissenden
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. We are often asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, on enamelled baths, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Common questions in Wissenden
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Prices and what affects them
A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Wissenden, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it 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.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
