Non-slip bath coating in Woodchurch, done in place
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on acrylic baths, resurfaced baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We charge the same across the UK, including Woodchurch. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Woodchurch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Woodchurch, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Woodchurch
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you come to Woodchurch?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Woodchurch and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
When to call us in Woodchurch
Smooth surfaces are 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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
Before booking anyone
