How we handle non-slip bath coating in Wivenhoe
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and shower trays alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
When to call us in Wivenhoe
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How your room will be protected
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Wivenhoe?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What non-slip bath coating costs
We don’t charge extra for travel to Wivenhoe. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
