About our non-slip bath coating in Bradiford
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Bradiford
Do you cover Bradiford?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bradiford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I clean it?
Yes. A soft brush and mild cleaner is all it needs.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Bradiford get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
