Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Chilcombe
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I clean it?
Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will I see the coating?
Very little: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Non-slip bath coating in Chilcombe, done in place
It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us), and the jobs we see most are resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and safety for older or less mobile people.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for 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.
- We leave it to cure, typically overnight.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price

- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas

Repairing versus replacing in Chilcombe
Instead, you could go for 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 price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What a repair cannot fix

- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
