- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten

Why repair rather than replace?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have.

About our non-slip bath coating in Chudleigh
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. We work on resurfaced baths, acrylic baths and enamelled baths, and people most frequently call us about resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Prices and what affects them
Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole bath or shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Chudleigh is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Yes. Use a soft brush and a mild cleaner.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
