Non-slip bath & shower coating in Cowley, Devon
Fixed-price non-slip bath coating in Cowley and the surrounding area, usually in one visit.
- Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
- Worn-out textured areas
- Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we handle non-slip bath coating in Cowley
The coating is clear and textured, so the bath looks much the same. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. If you are dealing with worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Avoid scourers on the coating.

What a repair cannot fix

- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cowley
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Cowley: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Will a non-slip coating change how my bath looks?
Only slightly: the treated area looks slightly matt.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
- We mask out the area to be treated.
- We apply the clear textured coating.
- The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
- Once it has cured, normally overnight, it’s ready.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
How we price non-slip bath coating
Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath or shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you don’t 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.
Should you replace it?
The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating treats your existing bath or tray. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
