Questions from Chard
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is a non-slip bath easy to clean?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Chard
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. Whether it’s a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Don’t use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chard
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Chard, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- Safety for older or less mobile people
Questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Chard

- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
