Non-slip bath coating in Bovey Tracey, done in place

It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We work on acrylic baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. The clear textured coating is applied.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bovey Tracey use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Bovey Tracey

  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Shower trays
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

Repair or replace: which is better?

The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
