For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Bulverton
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us), and people most often call us about safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Repair or replace in Bulverton?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Enamelled baths
- Resurfaced baths
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
