About our non-slip bath coating in Yawl
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What non-slip bath coating costs
There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Yawl, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for 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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything

What else we do in Yawl

Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Yawl?
The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
