Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bartlow
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We’re often asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and safety for older or less mobile people, on wet room floors (ask us), acrylic baths and shower trays.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cambridgeshire. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What else we do in Bartlow
Bartlow questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them
There is no area surcharge for Bartlow. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Bartlow get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 before you book.
What we work on
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
