Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bocombe
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We are often asked to fix safety for older or less mobile people and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, on acrylic baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What else we do in Bocombe
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bocombe
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bocombe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Bocombe, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bocombe. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Bocombe
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, but with soap and water on them they become slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Worn-out textured areas
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
Should you replace it?
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. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
