- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

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 coating adds grip to the bath you have. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Non-slip bath coating in Courtsend, done in place
It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. It’s a clear, textured coating, so the bath looks much the same. We are frequently asked to fix resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, in shower trays, enamelled baths and wet room floors (ask us).
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

What affects the price in Courtsend
There is no charge for travel to Courtsend. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Courtsend. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in Courtsend and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
FAQs for Courtsend
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Courtsend.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
