Non-slip bath & shower coating in Coombe, Cornwall
Our repair technicians come to Coombe for clear non-slip coatings for baths and shower trays. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Worn-out textured areas
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coombe use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Non-slip bath coating in Coombe, done in place
It suits 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 work on resurfaced baths, wet room floors (ask us) and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath or tray that is slippery when wet and resurfaced baths that are now too smooth.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What non-slip bath coating costs
We do not charge extra for travel to Coombe. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area

- Details of any past repairs

- We clean and degrease the standing area.
- The area to be treated is masked out.
- We put on the clear non-slip coating.
- We remove the masking for a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about non-slip bath coating in Coombe
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in Coombe?
Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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.
What we work on
- Shower trays
- Enamelled baths
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
Signs you need non-slip bath coating in Coombe
Smooth surfaces are easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. The textured patch on an older bath also wears down over time.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
- Safety for older or less mobile people
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
Comparing quotes
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
- What aftercare is recommended
Should you replace it?
Instead, you could go for a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Coombe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
