Non-slip bath coating in Woodhatch, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits older people, families and holiday lets. If you are dealing with resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and worn-out textured areas, we can help, on shower trays, resurfaced baths and acrylic baths 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. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How we price non-slip bath coating
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: 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 price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage

Repairing versus replacing in Woodhatch
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Worn-out textured areas

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
