Non-slip bath coating at your home in Witherwack
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us).
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
There’s no charge for travel to Witherwack. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Witherwack, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Common questions in Witherwack
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Acrylic baths
- Resurfaced baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Witherwack
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
For anyone letting property in or around Witherwack, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

When to call us in Witherwack
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for any of the following:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
Before booking anyone
- How your room will be protected
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
