Non-slip bath coating in Chivenor, done in place
It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Common call-outs are for safety for older or less mobile people and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth, in resurfaced baths, shower trays and wet room floors (ask us).
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- 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.

When to call us in Chivenor
Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, but wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.
Look out for these signs:
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet

Prices and what affects them
There is no charge for travel to Chivenor. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
For a price in Chivenor, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Chivenor: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How much does non-slip bath coating cost in Chivenor?
Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens after I send pictures?

Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Why repair rather than replace?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 generally the cheaper route.
