About our non-slip bath coating in Barnstaple
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. Our technicians work on resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Common questions in Barnstaple
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What does non-slip bath coating cost?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your EX32 postcode.
Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Shower trays
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
What non-slip bath coating costs
You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Barnstaple get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnstaple
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, generally overnight.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
