Non-slip bath coating in Abbas Combe without replacing anything
The coating is clear and textured, 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. We regularly repair acrylic baths, shower trays and resurfaced baths, and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, normally overnight.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Abbas Combe: your questions answered
Will I see the coating?
Very little: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Abbas Combe
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for 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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Abbas Combe
We don’t charge extra for travel to Abbas Combe. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Abbas Combe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
