- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Non-slip bath coating at your home in Chelmsford
It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. We’re frequently asked to fix bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, across resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are 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.

Common questions in Chelmsford

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Are there extra charges for Chelmsford?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Will I see the coating?

Repair or replace: which is better?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your photos
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- Next we mask off the area.
- The clear textured coating is applied.
- We lift the masking for a clean edge.
- The coating is left to cure before use, generally overnight.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available

What affects the price in Chelmsford
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chelmsford as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
