The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, usually overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Non-slip bath coating in Wroxall, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you are dealing with a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and safety for older or less mobile people, we can usually put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Wroxall
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO38 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you come to Wroxall?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Wroxall from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first

- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos

- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wroxall
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
