About our non-slip bath coating in Barking Tye
It suits older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Barking Tye questions
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Barking Tye is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you cover Barking Tye?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Barking Tye for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Landlord and trade work in Barking Tye
If you manage property in Barking Tye, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barking Tye use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Barking Tye
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- We leave it to cure, normally overnight.

Repairing versus replacing in Barking Tye
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
