- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the standing area is cleaned and degreased.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Non-slip bath coating at your home in Bygrave
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Our technicians work on shower trays, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and common reasons people contact us are safety for older or less mobile people and worn-out textured areas.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hertfordshire. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace in Bygrave?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
