Non-slip bath coating in Derker without replacing anything
It’s popular with older people, families and holiday lets. It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. If you’re dealing with worn-out textured areas and safety for older or less mobile people, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Derker questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Derker is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Repairing versus replacing in Derker
The alternatives are a new textured bath or tray, or a bath mat, which traps water and needs cleaning. A coating adds grip to the bath you have. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price non-slip bath coating
There’s no area surcharge for Derker. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OL1 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Resurfaced baths
- Enamelled baths
Landlord and trade work in Derker
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Derker, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
